Federal investigations are not limited to healthcare fraud. Numerous federal agencies have broad authority to investigate and prosecute businesses and individuals across many industries.
IRS – Tax Fraud & Financial Crimes
IRS Criminal Investigation (CI) agents investigate tax evasion, tax fraud, money laundering, and other financial crimes. These investigations frequently result in federal criminal charges carrying severe penalties.
DEA – Drug Enforcement Administration
DEA investigations target controlled substance offenses, including illegal prescribing by medical professionals and pharmaceutical diversion.
FDA – Food and Drug Administration
FDA investigations involve adulterated or misbranded products, off-label drug marketing, and fraud related to medical devices and pharmaceuticals.
USDA – Agricultural Fraud
USDA Office of Inspector General investigations cover fraud involving federal agricultural programs, food safety violations, and grant fraud.
FCPA – Foreign Corrupt Practices Act
The FCPA prohibits U.S. companies and individuals from bribing foreign government officials. These cases are increasingly prosecuted by both the DOJ and SEC with significant penalties.
