The department said Bayer allegedly paid Liberty Medical Supply about $2.5 million to convert its patients from 1998 to 2002. The alleged kickbacks were based on the number of successful patient conversions, with the kickbacks disguised as payments for advertising.
Bayer also allegedly paid kickbacks of approximately $375,000 to 10 other suppliers.
