Boeing 747-451
US Registration N661US
The Boeing 747 is a large, long-range wide-body airliner designed and manufactured by Boeing Commercial Airplanes in the United States between 1968 and 2023. After introducing the 707 in October 1958, Pan Am wanted a jet 2+1⁄2 times its size, to reduce its seat cost by 30%. In 1965, Joe Sutter left the 737 development program to design the 747. In April 1966, Pan Am ordered 25 Boeing 747-100 aircraft, and in late 1966, Pratt & Whitney agreed to develop the JT9D engine, a high-bypass turbofan. On September 30, 1968, the first 747 was rolled out of the custom-built Everett Plant, the world's largest building by volume. The first flight took place on February 9, 1969, and the 747 was certified in December of that year. It entered service with Pan Am on January 22, 1970. The 747 was the first airplane called a "Jumbo Jet" as the first wide-body airliner.
The 747 is a four-engined jet aircraft, initially powered by Pratt & Whitney JT9D turbofan engines, then General Electric CF6 and Rolls-Royce RB211 engines for the original variants. With a ten-abreast economy seating, it typically accommodates 366 passengers in three travel classes. It has a pronounced 37.5° wing sweep, allowing a Mach 0.85 (490 kn; 900 km/h) cruise speed, and its heavy weight is supported by four main landing gear legs, each with a four-wheel bogie. The partial double-deck aircraft was designed with a raised cockpit so it could be converted to a freighter airplane by installing a front cargo door, as it was initially thought that it would eventually be superseded by supersonic transports.
In 1985, development of the longer range 747-400 began.[85] The variant had a new glass cockpit, which allowed for a cockpit crew of two instead of three,[86] new engines, lighter construction materials, and a redesigned interior. Development costs soared, and production delays occurred as new technologies were incorporated at the request of airlines. Insufficient workforce experience and reliance on overtime contributed to early production problems on the 747-400.[14] The -400 entered service in 1989.

One of the largest US health care providers, Sutter Health, has agreed to pay $90 million to settle allegations of violating the False Claims Act (FCA) resolving the 2015 whistleblower suit. California-based hospital operator was accused of knowingly submitting inaccurate information about their patients’ health status enrolled in Sutter Health’s contracted Medicare Advantage Plans stated the U.S. Department of Justice.
The settlement, which is believed to be the largest FCA case against a hospital system over Medicare Advantage, was made on August 30, 2021, and once again underlined the benefits of whistleblowing in the healthcare sector.
What Alleged Fraud did Sutter Health Commit?
The whistleblower lawsuit was originally filed in 2015 by a former employee of Sutter Health. The case alleged that starting from 2010 Sutter Health and its medical practice foundation affiliates knowingly submitted unsupported diagnosis codes to its contracted Medicare Advantage Plans to increase its reimbursement for provided services.
Sutter Health’s contracted Medicare Advantage Plans received larger payments by making patients appear sicker than they actually were. Once aware of the unsupported codes, the healthcare service provider failed to take sufficient action which led to the system abuse.
Why is the Sutter Health Whistleblowing Case Important for the Medicare Program?
Whistleblowing is an essential tool for the government in going after misconduct and therefore protecting the public, especially when it comes to the Medicare program. Sutter Health’s case sets an important example of whistleblowers teaming up with lawyers and government officials to fight against fraud in the healthcare sector.
The “result sends a clear message that we will hold healthcare providers responsible if they knowingly provide or fail to correct information that is untruthful,” said the Justice Department’s Civil Division’s Deputy Assistant Attorney General Sarah Harrington.
In announcing the settlement, the Department of Justice representatives underlined their ongoing efforts to fight fraud within the Medicare Advantage program. In addition to the payment, Sutter Health signed a five-year corporate integrity agreement, which calls for a centralized risk assessment program. Under such a program the healthcare provider has to hire an outside organization to review its patient diagnostic data each year.
What Compensation does Sutter Health Case Whistleblower Get?
Often, the whistleblower is expected to receive 15% to 25% of the recovered funds if the government joins the case, or 25% to 30% of recovery if the government decides not to take on the case.
In the Sutter Health case, according to the media reports, the whistleblower is expected to get 15% to 30% of the settlement under the FCA, while the exact share is yet to be determined.
At Khurana Law Firm, P.C., experienced Medicare whistleblower lawyers support the decision to come forward to report abuse and fraud in the Medicare Advantage program.

We had our monthly volunteer "in-service" meeting for Sutter Roseville VNA/Hospice tonight. Our guest speaker for the night was Diane, the chaplain for the hospice program who talked to us about grief. As you can imagine, the hospice volunteers are a special group who deal with grief on a regular basis and not just when we lose a patient. We all shared our own personal stories of grief with our patients and how we've dealt with it. Hearing others' stories and sharing mine really made me feel better as it always helps to share with others going through the same thing.
It also made me realize how much the volunteer work I do with my dogs has helped me grow as a person over these past three years, I feel very fortunate for all that I have and that the work we do as volunteers for hospice is very important.
