Regarding a violation of the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act... I falsely claimed insurance costs.

Hello. I will answer your question regarding a violation of the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act.

Yes, the current situation appears to be one that goes beyond a mere administrative error and could constitute the 'crime of fraud,' a 'violation of the National Health Insurance Act,' and a 'violation of the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act.'

Where a person falsely claims treatment fees or medical care benefit costs and misappropriates the names of patients' family members, this is regarded as an act of fraud against the National Health Insurance Service and can be subject to criminal punishment.

In fact, there are quite a few cases in which such violations of the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act have resulted in suspension of a license, revocation of a license, or a sentence of imprisonment or a fine.

In particular, because repeated and planned false claims can lead to heavy punishment, if you wish to defend against criminal punishment as much as possible, you should promptly retain an attorney with extensive experience in violations of the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act and establish a response strategy.

From the early investigation stage, factors such as an attitude of confession, financial circumstances, whether you show remorse, and efforts to make refunds can affect sentencing.

You should consult an attorney as soon as possible, respond sincerely to the investigation into charges such as a violation of the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act, and begin efforts to reduce your liability, such as voluntarily refunding the falsely claimed amounts.
