Summary
The Corporate Crimes Against Health Care Act lets the U.S. Attorney General and state attorneys general recover compensation from private‑equity owners and affiliates when their conduct leads to a patient death or injury at a target health‑care company. Violators could face 1‑6 years in prison, civil fines up to five times the clawback amount, and must return earnings from the ten years before or after the event. Recovered money is deposited in the Treasury and a fund to aid affected employees and the harmed community.
