In 2021 H.I.G. Capital and former executives of South Bay Mental Health Center (SBMHC) agreed to pay US$25 million for allegedly causing fraudulent claims to be submitted to Massachusetts' Medicaid Program, known as MassHealth, for mental health care services provided to patients by unlicensed, unqualified, and improperly supervised staff members at clinics across the state. This settlement is the largest publicly disclosed government health care fraud settlement in the nation involving private equity oversight of health care providers, as well as the largest amount a private equity company itself has agreed to pay to resolve fraud allegations involving health care portfolio companies.
