COVID-19 and the False Claims Act
Webinar | 04.07.21, 7:00 AM EDT - 8:30 AM EDT
Please Join Crowell & Moring for a Webinar on COVID-19 and the False Claims Act: What to Expect and How to Defend Investigations, Audits, and Qui Tam Actions in a Post-Pandemic World.
The Pandemic has created new and expanded avenues of recovery for the government and whistleblowers under the False Claims Act. The massive influx of federal pandemic relief funds to small businesses, healthcare providers and other organizations; modifications to government contracts to address paid and sick leave as allowable costs; the dramatic increase in remote healthcare; and the vulnerabilities of elderly populations living in assisted living facilities or nursing homes in the U.S. generate additional bases for investigations and civil and criminal enforcement actions against companies faced with new and shifting compliance requirements in the post-Pandemic world.
On April 7, our panel will discuss what to expect and how to prepare for and defend investigations, audits, and qui tam actions as U.S. companies navigate Pandemic-related changes to business operations, including:
- Provider Relief Funds & Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) Borrower Fraud
- PPP Lender Fraud
- Section 3610 Allowances
- Telemedicine Kickback Schemes
- Elder Abuse
We hope you can join us for this webinar discussion.

Insights
Webinar | 12.10.25
In 2025, the U.S. Government’s policy statements and Executive Orders have had far-reaching impacts for government contractors and grant recipients. Although terminations, stop work orders, and de-scopes have affected private companies, non-profits, and universities doing business across multiple agencies, the U.S. Government’s policies relating to the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has caused particular confusion and uncertainty relating to performance, compliance, and contractual procedure. Key questions have included the potential impacts of official and less formal communications from the U.S. Government, procedural issues arising from the move of certain functions to the U.S. Department of State, and the effect of various pending litigations. As businesses and organizations plan for 2026, the importance of preserving their rights and maximizing potential recovery opportunities remains paramount.
