Healthcare, Data Mining and the Government: Smoke Doesn’t Always Mean Fire webinar on September 14, 2017

These days the government regularly uses enormous repositories of big data to aid in their criminal and civil investigations. The tools available to officials and agencies are growing more sophisticated every day, making it easier to determine outliers as they relate to Medicare, Medicaid, opioid prescriptions, and more.

Kerry B. Harvey, a former U.S. Attorney from the Eastern District of Kentucky, and Andrew L. Sparks, an Assistant U.S. Attorney in the Eastern District of Kentucky and Chief of the White Collar Fraud Section, will co-present this informative, deep dive into how the government uses data-mining to identify potential fraud cases. While smoke does not guarantee fire, you will learn how to best counsel your clients in the event they receive an inquiry from the government.

What you'll learn:

• Descriptions of the tools available and how the government receives and mines data
• What indicates an "outlier" and how the government proceeds once the data indicates one
• How the trial will play out; and what you as an attorney can expect and do to best advise your clients
