History & Organization

Molina Healthcare began 30 years ago in a small medical clinic in Long Beach, California. It was there that the Molina family children swept the floors, stocked shelves and filed medical records. That year was 1980 and the healthcare environment was similar to that of today. Patients without a family physician would flock to emergency departments complaining of a sore throat or the flu. As an emergency room physician, Dr. C. David Molina knew that treating patients for simple everyday ailments in the emergency room cost more and caused longer waits for people with true emergencies. As a result, Dr. Molina established a medical office to help those who were uninsured, non-English speaking or low income. This “medical home” enabled patients to access regular preventive care and a physician who was familiar with their health history who could provide the personalized care they couldn’t get anywhere else. Three decades later, Molina Healthcare is still led by a physician--but not any physician, the founder's son – Dr. J. Mario Molina. He and his siblings have gone from sweeping the floors of the first clinic to running the multi-state healthcare company.

The False Claims Act is a federal statute that covers fraud involving any federally funded contract or program, including the Medicare and Medicaid programs. The act establishes liability for any person who knowingly presents or causes to be presented a false or fraudulent claim to the U.S. government for payment. The term “knowing” is defined to mean that a person with respect to information: • Has actual knowledge of falsity of information in the claim; • Acts in deliberate ignorance of the truth or falsity of the information in a claim; or • Acts in reckless disregard of the truth or falsity of the information in a claim. The act does not require proof of a specific intent to defraud the U.S. government. Instead, health care providers can be prosecuted for a wide variety of conduct that leads to the submission of fraudulent claims to the government, such as knowingly making false statements, falsifying records, double-billing for items or services, submitting bills for services never performed or items never furnished or otherwise causing a false claim to be submitted.
