Glancy Binkow & Goldberg LLP Announces Investigation on Behalf of Shareholders of Chemed Corporation
LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Glancy Binkow & Goldberg LLP announces that it is investigating potential claims on behalf of shareholders of Chemed Corporation ("Chemed" or the "Company") (NYS: CHE) concerning possible breaches of fiduciary duties by the Company or its fiduciaries. Chemed, through its subsidiaries, operates in the healthcare and repair and maintenance fields in the United States. The Company's Vitas segment offers hospice and palliative patient-care services through a network of physicians, registered nurses, home health aides, social workers, clergy and volunteers.
Please contact us at (212) 682-5340, toll-free at (888) 773-9224, or at shareholders@glancylaw.com to discuss this matter. If you inquire by email, please include your mailing address, telephone number and number of shares purchased.
The investigation is related to allegations that Chemed billed Medicare for unnecessary and fraudulent treatments - including billing for hospice care for patients who were not terminally ill - and whether the Company's board of directors breached their fiduciary duties or allowed Chemed to engage in potential violations of the federal False Claims Act. In May 2013, the United States Department of Justice filed a lawsuit under the False Claims Act against Chemed and its affiliates, alleging that the Company systematically defrauded Medicare.
