Whistleblowers Bring Total Knee Replacement DME to its Knees

Three whistleblowers brought a durable medical equipment (DME) provider to its knees.

In two separate cases, the whistleblowers targeted Exactech, a manufacturer of total knee replacement (TKR) systems, resulting in a settlement of $8 million to resolve alleged violations of provisions of the False Claims Act (FCA).
Famed whistleblower attorney Mary Inman, partner in the law firm of Whistleblower Partners, LLP, will report the excoriating details of the settlement during the next live edition of Monitor Mondays.
