AG Campbell, in collaboration with the U.S Department of Justice and a bipartisan coalition of 35 other state attorneys general, today announced a $36.5 million multistate settlement with CVS Pharmacy, Inc. to resolve allegations that the company knowingly submitted false claims to MassHealth and other government healthcare programs by over-dispensing insulin pens and improperly obtaining reimbursement. Under the terms of the agreement, Massachusetts will receive $1.3 million from the settlement.

“MassHealth provides critical healthcare coverage to residents across the Commonwealth, and companies that exploit the program for profit undermine the trust placed in our public institutions. When companies submit improper claims and misuse taxpayer-funded resources, my office will hold them accountable. We will continue to protect public dollars and ensure these programs serve the people who depend on them.” -AG Campbell
