BURLINGTON, Vt. (WCAX) - If you use health care, you have an electronic health record.
A Florida-based health records company this week agreed to a $45 million settlement in Burlington federal court to resolve allegations of using kickbacks to generate business. The settlement resolves allegations filed in Vermont by Amanda Long, a former Modernizing Medicine vice president, under the whistleblower provisions of the False Claims Act.
Dom Amato spoke with Burlington attorney Tris Coffin, who represented Long in the case.
