Whistleblower Law Collaborative partner Erica Blachman Hitchings will be speaking at the American Conference Institute’s (ACI) 13th Annual Advanced Forum on False Claims and Qui Tam Enforcement, one of the premier gatherings for leaders shaping False Claims Act (FCA) enforcement. Her panel will discuss Medicare Advantage and the Anti-Kickback Statute: Healthcare Enforcement Priorities in the Here and Now. This is a rapidly growing area of enforcement that Erica has written about in Law360 and for our WLC blog.
This year’s Forum will take place January 28–29, 2026, in New York City, bringing together government attorneys, relators’ counsel, defense attorneys, in-house counsel, and compliance professionals for two days of high-level discussion on the evolving FCA landscape. The event will explore DOJ enforcement priorities, circuit splits, the role of analytics and AI, and key developments impacting healthcare, procurement, and financial fraud enforcement.
