Feld, Monica B. Wilkinson, Lea F. Courington and Alison L. Carruthers The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) continues to prioritize health care anti-fraud enforcement through the aggressive use of different statutes and investigative methods. Although the prosecutions and recoveries vary, between October 2016 and March 2017, “Strike Force” team efforts led to charges against 49 individuals or entities, 152 criminal actions, and more than $266.8 million in investigative receivables. Semiannual Report to Congress, U.S. Dep’t of Health & Human Services: Office of Inspector General: Oct. 1, 2016 to Mar. 31, 2017, http://bit.ly/2jaG6VP. Attorney General Jeff Sessions recently reaffirmed his interest in keeping health care fraud as a priority, and followed up those comments with the largest ever DOJ national health care fraud takedown, involving charges against 412 persons, including physicians. Health care anti-fraud enforcement initiatives traditionally focus on cases involving Medicare and Medicaid fraud. The reason is clear: recovery of government-funded money. More than half of the estimated expenditures in health care fraud overall are against public health care programs. For that other half, there has been another approach to combat health care fraud in which the government often uses the federal mail and wire fraud statutes; one of HIPAA’s specialized mail and wire fraud provisions tailored to health care fraud; or 18 U.S.C.

  • Evolution of the Concept of Political Corruption in Western and Russian Political Science and Law
    EVOLUTION OF THE CONCEPT OF POLITICAL CORRUPTION IN WESTERN AND RUSSIAN POLITICAL SCIENCE AND LAW STANISLAV SHEVERDYAEV, Lomonosov Moscow State University (Moscow, Russia) ALINA SHENFELDT, National Research University Higher School of Economics (Moscow, Russia) https://doi.org/10.17589/2309-8678-2019-7-2-53-80 As a result of intensive international debate and the adoption of a number of renowned international anticorruption conventions and initiatives in the 1990s and 2000s, the issue of corruption has become a convenient theme for different kinds of generalizations in social sciences. However, national legislation does not reflect these developments in its legal regulation due to conservatism inherent in jurisprudence. One of the most evident gaps in this respect is the sphere of political corruption. While political science and political economy for decades have been successful in explaining political processes in different countries as corrupt conspiracies of political elites, business structures, and other actors in the political process, legal science has kept itself separate from such problems and prefers to deal with individual acts of corruption. But if for criminal law such an approach seems logical due to the methodology of the criminal law, for other branches of law which set forth a systemic view on social processes – primarily administrative and constitutional – there seems to be an omission. Nowadays, there is a quite favourable environment for the development of a consistent legal understanding of anticorruption in Russia. This has become possible thanks to current Russian administrative reforms, when the need for a highly professional bureaucracy led to a greater demand for various anticorruption mechanisms.

He sends henchman to the scene of operations or travels himself from time to time to supervise the activity and check on his underlings. As for the profits, he receives his share by messenger.” ‐ U.S. Attorney General Robert Kennedy Travel Act Offense The Travel Act provides that: Whoever travels in interstate or foreign commerce or uses the mail or any facility in interstate or foreign commerce, with intent to‐ (1) distribute the proceeds of any unlawful activity; or (2) commit any crime of violence to further any unlawful activity; or (3) otherwise promote, manage, establish, carry on, or facilitate the promotion, management, establishment, or carrying on, of any unlawful activity, and therefore performs or attempts to perform.

Recent Developments in Foreign and Domestic Criminal Commercial Bribery Laws Ryan J. Rohlfsent INTRODUCTION The concept of bribery generally conjures notions of pay- ments made by private citizens to government officials as part of a corrupt effort to obtain a government contract or some sort of unfair advantage. But the involvement of a public actor is not required; rather, bribery may include corrupt payments between purely private parties. This may occur, for example, when a ven- dor makes an improper payment to the purchasing director of a company to buy that vendor's goods instead of another vendor's. Various jurisdictions have enacted laws criminalizing such "commercial" or "private" bribery. While the majority of US states have criminal commercial bribery laws, there is no general federal statute. In recent years, a number of international non- governmental organizations (NGOs) have pressed for countries to implement stringent criminal anti-commercial bribery laws.

HARDIMAN, Circuit Judge. Thomas V. Savino, M.D., appeals his judgment of conviction and sentence. We will affirm. I1 Savino operated a solo medical practice in Staten Island, New York. From August 2012 to April 2013, he accepted monthly cash payments from Biodiagnostic Laboratory Services (BLS), a blood laboratory headquartered in Parsippany, New Jersey. Savino agreed with Cliff Antell, a BLS recruiter, to allow the lab to set up a station to draw blood in the rear suite of his medical office. In May 2013, Antell began cooperating with the FBI during its investigation of BLS. He recorded a conversation in which Savino agreed to a different blood referral arrangement to replace the BLS deal. A federal grand jury in Newark, New Jersey indicted Savino on ten counts.2 Savino moved to dismiss the indictment, but the District Court denied the motion.

  • Independent-Norm Federalism in Criminal Law
    Independent-Norm Federalism in Criminal Law Susan R. Kleint INTRODUCTION Does anyone desire constitutionally required, Supreme Court-imposed federalism in the field of criminal law? While many conservatives would respond affirmatively as quickly as liberals would decline, I suggest that a deeper exploration reveals that their actual preferences are just the oppo- site. The federalism conservatives say they want, which consists of striking down federal criminal statutes that duplicate state laws, accomplishes noth- ing. The federalism they may receive if the Court continues on its current path and enforces the doctrine neutrally' will probably allow behavior that they find morally reprehensible. On the other hand, liberals, long in favor of rigorous federal judicial protection of individual liberties but a deferen- tial approach to judicial review under the Commerce Clause, may be sur- prised to find that federalism can enhance individual autonomy and lifestyle choices well beyond what the U.S. Constitution mandates. Whether liberals or conservatives should champion federalism in criminal law ultimately depends on what we mean by "federalism," whether it can be effectively and neutrally enforced, and what kinds of state regulations such enforcement protects. I contend that there are two distinct forms of federalism yet to be ac- knowledged: the "decentralization" or "fifty-labs" version, and what I call "independent-norm" federalism. The difficult issues we face are presented only by the latter. The first version of federalism seeks to preserve local Copyright © 2002 California Law Review, Inc.
