News: Anne Haule Quoted in Chicago Tribune

U&H Partner, Anne Haule, was quoted in Chicago Tribune regarding a whistleblower suit filed on behalf of a client. Attorney General Lisa Madigan has since intervened in the suit which alleges Chicago-area MRI operators entered into "sham" lease agreements with doctors violating anti-kickback statutes.

"The harm to consumers is overutilization of imaging services because the referring physician makes a significant amount of money each time for each referral," said Donaldson's attorney, Anne Haule of Chicago law firm Ungaretti & Harris. "It also leads to potential lower quality of the MRI services because the MRI facility has to share its revenue with the referring physicians, so they have less money to spend on state-of-the-art equipment and quality personnel."
