With the recent $422.5 million settlement by Novartis in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, now seems to be a good time to step back and look more broadly at the magnitude of recent FCA settlements. Over the past 22 months alone, a total of 11 pharmaceutical companies have paid over $6 billion to the government.
