kickbacks from his
use of implantable
devices distributed by
his physician-owned
distributorship (POD).
Sanford allegedly received
warnings from the
neurosurgeon’s physician
colleagues and others
about the alleged kickback
scheme and was aware of
the heightened compliance
risks associated with
PODs. In addition, the
neurosurgeon’s colleagues
and others repeatedly
warned Sanford that
the neurosurgeon was
performing medically
unnecessary procedures
involving the devices in
which he had a substantial
financial interest. The
United States alleged that,
despite these repeated
warnings, Sanford
continued to employ the
neurosurgeon, continued
to allow him to profit from
the devices he used in
surgeries performed at
Sanford, and continued to
submit claims to federal
healthcare programs for
these surgeries, including
procedures that were
medically unnecessary.
“Kickback schemes and
other improper financial
incentives create inherent
conflicts of interest and
warp the medical decisionmaking process,” said U.S.
Attorney Ron Parsons
for the District of South
Dakota. “This office will
continue to aggressively
pursue anyone who
colludes to violate federal
law and compromise the

integrity of our healthcare
system.”
Contemporaneous
with the civil settlement,
Sanford entered into
a Corporate Integrity
Agreement (CIA) with the
Department of Health and
Human Services Office
of Inspector General.
The CIA requires, among
other things, that Sanford
maintain a compliance
program, implement
a risk assessment
program, and hire an
Independent Review
Organization to review
Medicare and Medicaid
claims at Sanford Medical
Center. It also increases
individual accountability
by requiring compliancerelated certifications from
Sanford Medical Center’s
board of directors and key
executives.
“More than six years
ago the Department
of Health and Human
Services Office of the
Inspector General warned
in a fraud alert that PODs
were inherently suspect
under the Anti-Kickback
Statute. Unfortunately,
these distributors remain
questionable,” said Curt
L. Muller, Special Agent in
Charge,
Office of Inspector
General at the U.S.
Department of Health
and Human Services
(HHS-OIG). “Patients in
government healthcare
programs rightly expect
that surgeries are
medically indicated, not
performed to increase
provider profits.”
The settlement
resolves allegations
originally brought in a
lawsuit filed by Drs. Carl
Dustin Bechtold and
Bryan Wellman, surgeons
at Sanford, under the
whistleblower, or qui
tam, provision of the
False Claims Act, which
allows private parties to
bring suit on behalf of
the government and to
share in any recovery.
The whistleblowers will
receive $3.4 million of the
settlement proceeds.
The settlement was the
result of an investigation
by the Department of
Justice’s Civil Division,
the U.S. Attorney’s Office
for the District of South
Dakota, and HHS-OIG. As
part of the settlement,
Sanford has agreed
to cooperate with the
Department of Justice in
litigation related to alleged
co-defendants, and the
hospital system has taken
various remedial steps,
including terminating
the employment of the
neurosurgeon in question
and prohibiting all Sanford
physicians from profiting
from their use of medical
devices at Sanford.
The lawsuit is
captioned United States
ex rel. Bechtold, et al. v.
Asfora, et al., No. 4:16-cv04115-LLP (D.S.D.). The
claims resolved by the
settlement are allegations
only, and there has been
no determination of
liability.

Tim Walz yesterday sent a letter to
Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) Administrator Andrew
Wheeler urging the agency to
honor President Donald Trump’s
commitment to follow the Renewable
Fuel Standard.
As part of President Trump’s Oct.
4 announcement, he directed the
EPA to restore the biofuels lost when
the agency granted disproportionate
small refinery waivers At the time of
the announcement, Noem applauded
the administration’s plan, calling it a
“big win for producers.”
In their letter to the EPA, though,
Noem and Governor Walz say
that the agency’s proposed rules
“demonstrate that EPA is oblivious
to the harm it has caused.” In
the past three years, the EPA has
issued 85 small refinery waivers,
representing a loss of over 4.3 billion
gallons of biofuels.
“President Trump’s
announcement to expand ethanol
production would be an incredible
shot in the arm for South Dakota’s
farmers. It would increase the
demand for corn and improve
long-term agriculture stability,”
said Noem. “This announcement is
meaningless, though, if the EPA fails
to honor the president’s direction
and shirks its responsibility to
American farmers. The EPA’s
recently proposed rules fail to fix the
problems they previously caused
and once again do not enforce
ethanol production requirements. I
THANK YOU
FOR YOUR
Service
strongly urge Administrator Wheeler
and EPA leadership to reconsider
this approach and utilize actual
exempted gallon data to ensure the
support of farmers and ranchers in
South Dakota and throughout the
nation.”
“EPA chose to approve these
waivers at a time when farmers
and biofuel producers were
already hurt by adverse weather
conditions, flagging export market
opportunities, and chronically
low commodity prices. Approving
these waivers when the agriculture
economy was struggling represented
a callous disregard for the economic
interest our nation’s farmers,” Noem
and Walz wrote in the letter.
The governors urged the agency
to use a three-year rolling average of
actual exempted gallons as
the basis to estimate 2020
exempted volumes.
Noem is vice chair of
the Governor’s Biofuels
Coalition, a group of 21
governors who believe
that increasing the use
of clean-burning biofuels
can decrease the nation’s
dependence on imported
energy resources, improve
public health and the
environment, and stimulate
state economies.
