False claims and fraud: Lawsuit exposes Planned Parenthood deception - Alliance Defense Fund: Planned Parenthood submitted “repeated false, fraudulent, and ineligible claims for Medicaid reimbursements” through the Texas Women’s Health Program according to a federal lawsuit made public Friday. Alliance Defense Fund attorneys representing former Planned Parenthood clinic director Abby Johnson filed the lawsuit in July 2009 against the abortion giant’s Houston and Southeast Texas affiliate.
The lawsuit alleges that Planned Parenthood of Houston and Southeast Texas, now known as Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast, filed at least 87,075 false, fraudulent, or ineligible claims with the Texas Women’s Health Program. As a result, Planned Parenthood wrongfully received and retained reimbursements totaling more than $5.7 million.
