Doctors Care P.A., the largest urgent care provider network in South Carolina, and its management company, UCI Medical Affiliates of South Carolina Inc., will pay $22.5 million to settle false claims allegations, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of South Carolina said April 8.
[1] Doctors Care and UCI allegedly falsely certified that some urgent care visits were performed by providers who were credentialed to bill Medicare, Medicaid and TRICARE, which means the services weren’t performed by credentialed providers from 2013 to 2018, according to the complaint, the U.S. attorney’s office alleged. The case was set in motion by a whistleblower. Doctors Care and UCI didn’t admit liability in the settlement.
