  • The U.S. Department of Justice announced Friday that Walgreens Boots Alliance (NASDAQ:WBA) has agreed to pay $106.8M to settle its allegations that the pharmacy chain operator billed government health care programs for prescriptions it never dispensed.
  • The alleged violations took place between 2009 and 2020 when Walgreens (WBA) submitted false claims for payments to Medicare, Medicaid, and other federal healthcare programs.
  • The DoJ alleged that the Deerfield, Illinois, company obtained payments twice after restocking and reselling prescriptions it processed for federal health care programs, but their beneficiaries never picked up.
  • “As a result, Walgreens received tens of millions of dollars for prescriptions that it never actually provided to health care beneficiaries,” the agency added.
  • “This settlement marks another major achievement in our ongoing commitment to combat healthcare fraud,” said Roger B. Handberg U.S. Attorney for the Middle District of Florida.
