Heal 360 Agrees to $20M COVID Claims Settlement

Heal 360 Urgent Care, Heal 360 Primary Care and their owner, Dr. Mohammed Amer Mohiuddin, agreed to pay $20 million to resolve False Claims Act allegations involving billing to the federal COVID-19 Uninsured Program. The Justice Department alleged that, from January 2021 to March 2022, the clinics billed for evaluation and management visits that were not provided when patients at testing sites received only nasal-swab specimen collection. Additional reporting says the clinics allegedly billed higher-level office-visit codes and used fabricated medical records to support claims. The settlement resolves the allegations; it is not described in the reports as an admission of liability.
