The late Dr. Darren Sewell, M.D. alleged insurer Freedom Health Inc.’s Medicare Advantage plans overbilled Medicare by exaggerating how sick patients were and expanded into new markets with an inadequate network of providers, misstating the providers and facilities available. Freedom Health Inc. and its former Chief Operating Officer Siddhartha Pagidipati agreed to pay $32.5 million to settle. Our lawyers supported Dr. Sewell's brother in his quest to carry on Dr. Sewell's important work by bringing his qui tam case to a successful resolution. To honor Dr. Sewell's legacy, our lawyers worked with David Sewell to publish his brother's whistleblower story in a 2019 New Yorker article The Personal Toll of Whistle-blowing as well as the episode Taking Advantage of the PBS show Playing by the Rules: Ethics at Work.
