    Based in Naples, Florida, Health Management is in the business of operating hospitals and other health care facilities throughout the United States. Health Management shareholders filed a class action lawsuit in the United States District Court in the Middle District of Florida alleging that throughout the Class Period, the Company and its most senior officers and directors repeatedly touted HMA’s strong financial performance and growth, its growth in hospital admission rates, and its compliance with all applicable laws and regulations which artificially inflated the stock prices. (Case No.: 12-cv-00046)

    According to the shareholders lawsuit, on January 9, 2012, an analyst from CRT Capital Group announced that a whistleblower lawsuit was filed by former compliance director, Paul Meyer for wrongful termination and the alleged misconduct by HMA for improperly admitting Medicare patients. The complaint alleged that several HMA hospitals had won higher government payments from the Medicare program for the elderly and disabled, in part by “the submission of fraudulent billing to Medicare through the improper admission of patients as inpatients even though such patients clearly did not meet the standards for inpatient admission.” Sharesholders allege that after this news was disclosed, shares of the Company dropped from $7.49 per share to close on January 9, 2012 at $6.96 per share, a decline of $.53 per share, more than 7%. This decline wiped out more than $134.6 million in HMA’s market capitalization in a single day.
