Nursing Homes Cheated Medicaid Through Neglect, N.M. Says - Law360
New Mexico’s attorney general on Thursday sued nursing home chain Preferred Care Partners Management Group LP for allegedly defrauding Medicaid by maintaining low staffing levels that resulted in nursing home residents wallowing in filth.
The lawsuit in state court alleges violations of the New Mexico Fraud Against Taxpayers Act and the New Mexico Medicaid Fraud Act, which include potential per-violation penalties of $10,000 that are similar to penalties found in the federal False Claims Act.
The allegations span 2007 to present, partly covering time before Preferred Care acquired the nursing home.
