The federal government and some states have adopted laws that provide assistance in combating fraud, waste and abuse. Some of these laws contain “whistleblower” provisions that protect employees who report illegal conduct to appropriate authorities. These laws may also allow employees to share in a percentage of any monetary recovery obtained by the government. A summary of these laws is provided to employees. Suspected illegal conduct should be reported to a member of management, the Compliance Hotline (800) 949-6607, or to the appropriate federal or state agency.
