Bayer Healthcare to Pay U.S. $97.5 Million to Settle Allegations of Paying Kickbacks to Diabetic Suppliers
Date:11/25/2008

the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

"Device manufacturers who pay illegal kickbacks should expect to be held accountable," said Daniel R. Levinson, HHS Inspector General. "OIG's compliance agreement with Bayer includes specific requirements for the board of directors and management that will enable OIG to closely monitor company practices affecting Federal health care programs and beneficiaries."

The investigation was referred to the Justice Department's Civil Division, Commercial Litigation Branch, by the FBI and the Criminal Division of the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Florida, in West Palm Beach, Fla.
