A Venice-based testing company agreed to $26 million in settlements after the company was accused of forging test results.
The complaint said that the company would manipulate old PDF lab reports from previous tests to forge the results.
The complaint also alleged that Sameday Health would fake results for customers whose tests were never processed by labs. Sameday Health also allegedly charged insurance companies that were already paying for COVID-19 tests an additional fee for unnecessary medical consultations."Sameday Health was founded in September 2020 in an effort to make fast, reliable, COVID testing available to everyone.
The phone calls with Toll would last two to three minutes and cost insurers about $450, the complaint alleged. In exchange for providing him with calls, Toll allegedly gave Sameday Health a large portion of the profits, according to the complaint, with Sameday Health making millions of dollars from California-based insurance claims alone.
