“From September 2014 through July 2015, PCA provided Rainwater Rose a forty percent (40%) commission on gross profit for every prescription that was filled and reimbursed. This was done through Alisa Cattogio's acquaintance, marketer Brian Podolak, who provided the introduction to Lambert in Costa Rica.
116. Rainwater Rose targeted patients using information provided to them by Podolak, and used a telemarketing script and facilitating doctor's orders by faxing patient scripts back to the physician for signature, which in turn was faxed back to Rainwater Rose and then to PCA.
117. Commissions of 40% were paid to Rainwater Rose net 30 after receipt of prescription.
118. Additionally, as with all of the marketing agencies, they told patients that they did not have to pay copays as a way of inducing them to get the "free" product that their insurance would cover.
119. Amazingly, Podolak's Linked In page shows the marketing agent's methodologies for providing kickbacks to physicians for pain cream prescriptions. The page, which is addressed to marketing agents that he could compensate, brazenly states:
Searching for reps who are hungry to earn. Our unique model compensates physicians for their time to collect HIPAA compliant data from their patient base for our pharmacy clients. Physicians earn thousands ofdollars a month and takesjust moments ofone of their office staffs time. You set up the meeting, we will close them, you earn in a big way.
