Our Media Statement
3/28/2012
Bates Drug Stores, Inc. (an Employee owned company since 2002), has resolved various regulatory and billing questions raised by the federal and state authorities. While we disagree with many of the allegations raised by the government, including allegations that Bates submitted any false claims to Medicare and/or Medicaid, the cost of continuing to fight them was prohibitive. More importantly, the government has pointed to no instance where Bates has submitted a false claim. Without admitting any violations, Bates has worked diligently to revise our internal policies and procedures and compliance oversight. Bates continues to deliver exceptional service to our long- term and retail customers; and is pleased to put these inquiries behind so we can devote attention to further improving our customer service and patient care.
In settling these matters, Bates agreed to undertake a series of internal reporting and compliance measures and agreed not to handle or dispense Schedule II controlled substances for a short period of time, from November 23, 2011, until April 30, 2012.
Bates looks forward to continuing as a community leader and award-winning pharmacy, serving the Spokane community as we have been since our founding in 1942. We are committed to continuing to provide quality services to the greater Spokane community.
