About Blood Money: One Man's Bare-Knuckle Fight To

Product Description BLOOD MONEY is the true legal thriller of a terrifying David vs. Goliath fight against massive healthcare fraud by a brave Whistleblower. It includes attempted murder, extortion, money-laundering, fraudsters hiding money in the Cayman Islands, gold buried in a storage container in a CEO’s backyard, an Assistant Attorney General sabotaging her state’s case, and a corrupt Governor torpedoing litigation by his own Attorney General. From Silicon Valley to the Sunshine State, in a showdown that reads like a Hollywood movie, Chris Riedel survives to share it all. His actions have resulted in a court verdict and settlements totaling more than $550 million... and counting. Review "An in-depth book that leaves no stone unturned, that names and follows cases from beginning to end in detail, Blood Money should be required reading not only for legal students but members of the public whose hard-earned tax dollars are going to line the pockets of the few." -Five-Star review by Lucinda E Clarke for Readers' Favorite "This historic settlement affirms that Medi-Cal exists to help the state's neediest families rather than illegally line private pockets." -Vice-President Elect, Kamala Harris "Through massive fraud, overcharging and kickbacks, these medical laboratories have siphoned hundreds of millions of dollars away from the state's Medi-Cal program." -Former California Governor, Jerry Brown "In Medieval Times the Chris Riedel I know would have been Sir Lancelot. In today's world he donned armor to battle billing fraud of multi-billion dollar companies and the resistance of some state justice departments to take action to enforce their laws and regulations." -Jim Root, Co-Founder and CEO Chi Laboratory Systems "Quite the eye-opening exposé, one sure to force a long, piercing look at some of the major, well-known firms out there reaping billions in fraudulent practices, taking kick-backs, receiving some lovely inducement gifts. It's costing you and I. And most of us can't do a thing about it." -Vince Williams, Vine Voice "Blood Money has it all - from attempted murder, extortion, money-laundering, buried gold to case sabotaging and buying off a Governor by Attorney Generals. Chris Riedel is a brave whistleblower going after medical fraud making sure taxpayers no longer get ripped off. I was blown away reading what medical labs really do to get money. I also didn't know the risks to being a whistleblower until now but in the book there's rules for doing so to keep you safe. If you get lab tests done then I highly recommend reading this book so you can make sure you're not paying more than you should. This is the best true legal crime thriller I've read all year!!" -Melissa Jenkins "Hard-hitting, takes you into the inner workings and twists and turns of negotiating with the DOJ and state governments ... and a hugely important story, because it affects all of us who get medical labs. Fascinating. My hat's off to Chris Riedel for taking up the fight for all of us." -Richard Jaffe, renowned Civil Rights attorney and author, Quest for Justice "Probably the single greatest threat for a clinical laboratory or genetic testing company is for a whistleblower to file a qui tam action that brings in federal prosecutors and results in criminal indictments or civil settlements involved tens of millions of dollars. Now Chris Riedel, who has spent the last fifteen years fighting healthcare fraud and has secured $550 million in settlements and judgments so far for taxpayers, uses this book to draw back the curtain on how whistleblower cases start, why some cases succeed and others don't, and what it is like to work with government prosecutors. His insights and advice are 'must reading' for anyone considering initiating a whistleblower case against a lab, as well as for lab owners and healthcare executives to understand what practices must be avoided to escape a crippling whistleblower lawsuit. It is also a good true crime thrille
