DoD Seeks Changes to the Program Fraud Civil Remedies Act
Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 04.26.16
On April 12, 2016, DoD sent its legislative proposal package to Congress and requested (in section 805) changes to the Program Fraud Civil Remedies Act to create, in DoD’s view, a more viable administrative remedy for fraud and false claims totaling less than $500,000. In addition to increasing the ceiling on false claims allegations that can be brought under the PFCRA, DoD seeks to place the decision of whether adequate evidence of liability exists in the hands of suspending and debarring officials, raising for contractors serious concerns, some of which are summarized in the associated blog post.

NAIC Intensifies AI Regulatory Focus: What Health Insurance Payors Need to Know
The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) is intensifying its oversight of how insurers use AI — and the pace of regulatory activity shows no signs of slowing. Over the past several months, the NAIC has published a formal Issue Brief staking out its position on federal AI legislation, launched a multistate AI Evaluation Tool pilot aimed at examining insurers’ AI governance programs, and continued to expand adoption of its AI Model Bulletin across state lines. These developments continue a trend towards enhancing regulation; the NAIC adopted AI Principles in 2020 and a Model Bulletin in 2023 clarifying that existing insurance laws apply to AI systems and establishing expectations for governance, documentation, testing, and third-party oversight. That Model Bulletin has now been adopted in approximately 24 states.
