Connecticut joined 39 other states and the federal government in a $384 million False Claims Act settlement with Abbott Laboratories over allegations that the company failed to manufacture powder infant formula and nutritional therapy products in compliance with federal and state requirements at its Sturgis, Michigan, and Casa Grande, Arizona facilities. Abbott allegedly manufactured formula in conditions that risked microorganism contamination and failed to disclose contamination test results to the FDA during 2019 and 2022 inspections. The settlement resolves claims that Abbott caused false claims to be submitted to the WIC program and state Medicaid programs between January 1, 2018, and December 31, 2022.

Abbott Laboratories agreed to pay more than $384 million — including $977,558 to Oregon — to resolve allegations that it sold powder infant formula and nutritional therapy products made in unsafe manufacturing conditions to Medicaid and food assistance programs such as WIC between January 2018 and December 2022. Investigators found Abbott failed to maintain manufacturing equipment and control water at its Sturgis, Michigan, and Casa Grande, Arizona, facilities, and withheld test results showing contamination during FDA inspections in 2019 and 2022. The settlement was negotiated by the National Association of Medicaid Fraud Control Units on behalf of the federal government and 39 states.
