MISHAWAKA — Krieg DeVault is pleased to announce that Partner and Health Care Practice Group Leader Robert “Bob” A. Wade has recently been named as the Compliance Expert to the Board of Halifax Health, a 678-bed hospital system based in Daytona Beach, Florida.  In March 2014, Halifax Health signed a Corporate Integrity Agreement (“CIA”) with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of Inspector General as part of an $85 million settlement with the U.S. Department of Justice over alleged illegal contracts with doctors, that violated the Stark Law as well submitting false Medicare claims to the federal government.  This settlement is the largest Stark Law settlement involving a hospital system to date.
