Florida Hospital Overbilling Case Heats Up

Florida Hospital repaid almost $3 million to Medicare following an audit, which the attorney for a whistleblower says is evidence their lawsuit has legs, the Orlando Sentinel reports.  The hospital says the audit was routine and that the amount repaid is far less than 1 percent of revenue, a minor matter. 
 

Originally founded in December 2006 as an independent grassroots publication dedicated to coverage of health issues in Florida, Health News Florida was acquired by WUSF Public Media in September 2012.
