Fifth Circuit Decision in Health Care Fraud Case Highlights Importance of Careful Drafting in Civil RICO Complaints

A recent decision by the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, Farmers Texas County Mutual Insurance Co. v. 1st Choice Accident & Injury, LLC, No. 24-20275 (5th Cir. Feb. 24, 2026), offers important lessons for health care payors and other potential plaintiffs considering civil claims under the federal Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO). Although the Fifth Circuit’s decision focused on a procedural issue, the underlying case turned on a fundamental pleading failure: the plaintiff insurers did not adequately describe the fraudulent network they were suing as a RICO “enterprise.” The result was dismissal of a $14 million fraud case.

Trump Administration Pursues MFN Pricing for Prescription Drugs

By the end of 2025, 16 drug manufacturers had voluntarily negotiated and executed agreements to adopt Most Favored Nation (MFN) pricing for certain high-cost drugs. The Trump Administration highlighted the agreements in its “Great Healthcare Plan,” published on January 15, 2026, and communicated the government’s plans to “codify” such deals as a means of “get[ting] Americans the same low prices that people in other countries pay.” The Administration recently leveraged MFN pricing to establish the TrumpRx website, which helps uninsured or cash-paying consumers find drugs at a discounted price. The website reflects the Administration’s stated commitment to provide more lower-cost drugs directly to consumers. Currently, 40 branded medications are available at reduced prices.
