Originally published by Robert Kraft.

The Dallas Morning News reports two former employees have filed a suit against CareFlite, “a nonprofit air and ground medical service provider,” alleging the company committed healthcare fraud by “charging the government for services that were ‘not medically necessary.’” They say CareFlite “and its billing vendor, Quick Med Claims, have overcharged Medicaid and Medicare for ambulance services since 2009.” The News notes that the lawsuit “was filed in 2013 but unsealed late last year when the U.S. attorney’s office declined to join the plaintiffs.”

From the news release of the American Association for Justice.
