Often called Lincoln's Law, the federal False Claims Act was passed with overwhelming bipartisan support and signed by President Abraham Lincoln in 1863 on the very same day that it arrived on his desk.
In the midst of this country's bloodiest struggle - while the fabric of our nation was torn apart - profiteers looted the Union military by selling diseased mules, defective cannons, cardboard boots, and uniforms made of so-called "shoddy cloth" loosely knitted from glued rags that rotted away when the troops got wet.
When Henry Frohsin, Jim Barger, and Elliott Walthall left the Alabama office of an established multi-state defense firm in 2008 to start one of the first national fraud enforcement firms, they pledged to focus on worthy cases brought by brave whistleblowers.
Adhering to that pledge, the firm has flourished for nearly a decade, adding new lawyers and achieving hundred million dollar recoveries for the United States while becoming the respected nationwide firm of Frohsin Barger & Walthall.
In 2014, co-founder Henry Frohsin shifted to an Of Counsel advisory position within the firm, and the team expanded into new locations in Florida, Georgia and North Carolina, using secure cutting-edge technology and setting new trends in practice management.
The picture above shows Johnson and Truman signing the very first Medicare application; the actual application card itself - signed by both men - is pictured below.
Truman, the President who guided our country through World War II's conclusion, learned many things during the wartime years - not least of which was that far too many in our country suffered from poor health, despite the fact that the United States led the world in advancements in modern medicine.
World War II provided unprecedented insight into the effectiveness of our nation's health care system because every man between ages 18 and 37 received a rigorous health examination as part of the draft.
The nurse pictured above caring for her dying patient is Dame Cicely Saunders, a British nurse-physician-Christian-activist who first founded hospice for the dying in the 1960s as both a benevolent mission and medical discipline.
Dame Saunders believed that human beings deserved to be treated with dignity and respect during the otherwise difficult and often painful transition from life to death.
Sadly, the past ten years have seen Dame Saunders' promise all but abandoned by the corporate takeover of hospice by investors hell-bent on putting profits over people.
