(note that this table does not include recoveries to
the states in Medicaid cases).
The average relator
award when DOJ intervened or otherwise pursued the case is 16.84% award of FCA recovery.
DoJ data is less
than complete and somewhat distorted. Not
only are criminal fines in False Claims Act cases
not counted, but neither are those portions of
federal settlements allocated to the states in
Medicaid cases. Finally, we have cases that
are simply not booked at all because of poor
reporting to Main Justice by various U.S. Attorneys
offices.
The TAF Education Fund keeps a detailed running
tabulation of False Claims Act settlements.
Our settlement numbers do not include criminal
fines, but do include state settlements.

FCA
Recoveries Over $22 Billion
Total False Claims Act
recoveries (Federal and State) since the 1986 amendments now total over
$24 billion.
To
put this into perspective, the $24 billion
recovered from fraud-feasors to date represents a
stack of $100 bills more than 23 miles high.
In the health care
arena, the U.S. Government is recovering $15 back
for every $1
invested in False
Claims Act health care investigations and
prosecutions.
