The multi-state settlement with Medical Informatics Engineering makes the OCR settlement seem like a cake walk. The vendor agrees to pay OCR $100,000 with a standard 2-year corrective action plan. The states get $900,000 plus 5 years of very specific corrective action requirements. Vendors need to pay attention to this case and take appropriate action now.
