CA-AG v. The Pill Club

Settled

The Pill Club allegedly defrauded Medi-Cal of millions of dollars in funding by dispensing and submitting claims for unwanted and unasked-for contraception, services not rendered, according to the California Department of Justice. The Pill Club allegedly unlawfully billed California’s Medicaid program, Medi-Cal, millions of dollars in public funds in an allegedly fraudulent scheme that exploited the Affordable Care Act's (ACA) essential coverage mandate. The Pill Club appears to have defrauded the Medi-Cal program in several ways, including billing for services it had never rendered and dispensing enormous quantities of costly products its customers had not asked for, according to the California Department of Justice.
