Like all other aspects of life, the COVID-19 global pandemic had a dramatic effect on False Claims Act (FCA) enforcement in 2020. Please join members of Crowell & Moring’s Government Contracts and Healthcare Groups as they explore the most significant FCA developments across industries in this two-part webinar series.


Part 1 will focus on key FCA developments applicable to government contractors and all others who face FCA risks in their business, including the emerging areas of exposure and enforcement related to pandemic relief funding. In addition to enforcement priorities, we will cover many important FCA case law developments including materiality, causation, pleading requirements, bars to qui tam actions, and the government’s authority to dismiss qui tams, and more.
