Funded Activity Summary

Detecting Fraud and Anti-Competitive Behaviour in the Australian Pharmaceutical and Medical Device Industries. This Project will deliver law reform proposals to ensure greater accountability and a reduction of fraud and anti-competitive behaviour associated with over 6 billion dollars of public money expended each year under the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) as well as significant amounts paid by public hospitals on medical devices. It unites experts in Australian pharmaceutical regulation and high technology law enforcement with an eminent United States Partner Investigator in False Claims litigation. Reducing fraud and anti-competitive behaviour could be critical to survivability of the PBS and the benefits it brings particularly to an ageing population.
