Greenwood Village, Colo.-based Air Methods Corporation will pay $1.05M to the federal government to settle allegations it did not return overpayments it received from Medicare, Tricare and Kentucky Medicaid.
According to an Aug. 15 news release from the Justice Department, Air Methods allegedly failed to return payments for over 100 flights that were deemed medically unnecessary.
The claims in the settlement are allegations only, and there have been no determinations of liability.
