A question of integrity. Federal prosecutors question Tenet's compliance with integrity agreement in a $323 million False Claims Act lawsuit.
Tenet Healthcare Corp.'s carefully groomed reputation as a kinder and cleaner for-profit hospital chain alternative took another hit last week when the U.S. Justice Department filed a $323 million lawsuit against the company. The False Claims Act suit alleges Tenet illegally submitted thousands of false claims to maximize revenue. Lawyer Michael Ruggio says Tenet's troubles are far from over.
