PQA files $24.3 million lawsuit

By admin • December 15th, 2008

PQA filed today a 42-count, $24.3 million lawsuit against 64 defendants on behalf of a Fortune 100 insurance company.
The suit alleges a complex automobile insurance fraud scheme involving 15 medical facilities and more than 45 other defendants, including physicians and an attorney.  The suit alleges that certain of the defendants violated the New Jersey Insurance Fraud Prevention Act and New Jersey’s civil Racketeer-Influenced and Corrupt Organization (“RICO”) law through a scheme that involved the recruiting and referrals of claimants to treat at healthcare facilities in exchange for money and exaggerated testing results that would justify further treatments.
