How can violations of FDA requirements for promotion and marketing, adverse event reporting or cGMPs trigger the False Claims Act (FCA)?
Drug and device manufacturers need to know because an interim final rule from the Department of Justice virtually doubles penalties for FCA violations.
Join Anna Laakmann — Counsel, Greenberg Traurig — on Oct. 19 when she’ll explain how regulatory noncompliance can form the basis of an FCA enforcement action by the government. She’ll highlight areas of regulatory risk and discuss key developments about the implied certification theory of FCA liability.
After attending this 90-minute webinar attendees will know:
• Common scenarios in which regulatory violations can give rise to FCA liability
• How to avoid FCA claims based on promotion and marketing
• The consequences of failing to report adverse events
• The impact of recent FCA cases and its effect
• Implications of the U.S. Supreme Court’s recent decision in Universal Health Services v. Escobar
Register today and remain in compliance with the interim final rule of the FCA.
