The US Department of Justice said RST-Sanexas, its owners and related entities agreed to pay $1.5 million to resolve allegations under the False Claims Act. The DOJ alleges they caused Medicare claims for medically unnecessary or uncovered Sanexas treatments, vitamin injections and nerve testing, and paid and accepted illegal referral inducements under the Anti-Kickback Statute.
The settlement resolves allegations and is not described as a conviction or admission of liability. The amount was based on the defendants’ ability to pay, according to the DOJ.
