What does "define qui tam" mean?

Qui tam law allows a private citizen (relator) to sue on behalf of the U.S. government to stop false claiming and recover funds.

What are the key qui tam provisions under the False Claims Act?

Core provisions cover who may file, filing under seal, government investigation and intervention, relator protections against retaliation, and eligibility for government rewards.

How to be a whistleblower safely?

Speak with a qualified False Claims Act attorney, preserve evidence lawfully, file under seal, and follow FCA whistleblowing procedures that protect identity and employment.

What are common false claims examples in healthcare?

Upcoding, billing for services not rendered, unnecessary procedures, duplicate claims, kickbacks, and credential misrepresentation within Medicare/Medicaid programs.

How do government rewards work for whistleblowers?

Relators may receive roughly 15–25% of recoveries if the government intervenes, or 25–30% when proceeding independently, depending on contribution and case outcome.

Privacy Policy | QuitamOnline

Last updated: 2026. This policy is a general template and should be reviewed and customized by qualified counsel before publication to reflect the site's actual data practices and applicable law (including state privacy laws and, where relevant, GDPR). It is not legal advice — see our disclaimer.

This Privacy Policy explains how QuitamOnline ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit this website and when you contact us about a potential matter. Because the people who reach out to this site may be sharing sensitive information, we treat privacy seriously.

Information we collect

We may collect:

Information you provide directly. When you submit a contact or consultation form, you may give us your name, email address, phone number, and a description of your situation. Please share only what you are comfortable sharing in an initial inquiry.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, we may collect technical data such as your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, and referring URLs, through standard server and security logs processed by our hosting and CDN providers (for example, IP address, browser type, pages visited, and referring URL). We do not use third-party marketing or analytics trackers on this site.

How we use information

We use the information we collect to:

Respond to your inquiries and evaluate, at a preliminary level, whether we may be able to help.
Operate, maintain, and improve the website.
Comply with legal obligations.

We do not sell your personal information.

Confidentiality of consultation inquiries

Information you submit through a consultation form is handled as a confidential inquiry. Please note that submitting a form does not by itself create an attorney–client relationship. Avoid sending highly sensitive documents in an initial message; if a relationship is established, you will receive guidance on how to communicate securely.

Cookies

We may use essential cookies and similar technologies needed to operate the site securely. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling some cookies may affect how the site functions.

How we share information

We may share information with:

Service providers who help us operate the site (for example, hosting and content delivery), under appropriate confidentiality obligations.
Legal and safety purposes, where required by law or to protect rights and safety.

Data retention and security

We retain information only as long as needed for the purposes described here or as required by law, and we use reasonable measures to protect it. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your choices and rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete your personal information, or to opt out of certain processing. To make a request, use the details on our contact page. We will respond consistent with applicable law.

Children's privacy

This site is intended for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

International users

This Site is operated for a United States audience. If you access it from outside the United States, be aware that any information you submit may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States, where data-protection laws may differ from those in your location. By using the Site, you understand and consent to that transfer.

Do Not Track and your choices

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" signal. Because there is no common industry standard for responding to these signals, the Site may not respond to them. You can still control cookies through your browser and limit the information you share with us by choosing what to include in any inquiry.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The "last updated" date reflects the most recent version. Material changes will be posted on this page.
