US Attorney John H. Durham and CT Attorney General George Jepsen announced that Ellington BEhavioral Health (“EBH”) has entered into a civil settlement agreement with the federal and state governments to pay $805,071 to resolve allegations that they violated the federal and state False Claims Acts. The government alleges that EBH submitted claims to Medicare for multiple units of urine drug screening tests when they knew or should have known that only one unit of service could be billed per patient encounter.
