Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center Inc. has agreed to pay $2.75 million to settle allegations that it filed false claims to federal health benefits programs for nearly two years, the U.S. attorney for Maryland announced Tuesday. From July 2005 though February 2007, Bayview employees claimed that patients were treated for ailments they did not have, including malnutrition and acute respiratory failure, according to the settlement agreement. The claims inflated the severity of the center's case mix and, therefore, the rates at which it was reimbursed under schedules set by the Maryland Health Services Cost Review Commission.

Patient First, an urgent care chain, opens a new center this morning on the campus of Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center -- its first facility on the grounds of a hospital and its first in Baltimore City. Bayview sought out Patient First, seeing it not as competition but as a mechanism to unclog its crowded emergency department. The Bayview opening heralds a new burst of growth for Patient First, which opened five urgent care centers in the Baltimore area a decade ago but had not built any since.

The Johns Hopkins University and one of its teaching hospitals have agreed to pay more than $2.6 million to settle a federal lawsuit alleging that they overbilled the National Institutes of Health for addiction research and other projects. The settlement, announced yesterday by the U.S. attorney's office, came six years after an employee told federal authorities that researchers at Hopkins Bayview Medical Center had inflated the amount of time required to carry out studies on therapies for drug dependence.

Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center has closed its well-regarded drug detoxification center and is expanding its methadone treatment program, a move that reflects a shift in the city's drug treatment policy. Hundreds of addicts were weaned off of drugs during stays of 10 days to two weeks at the detox center. But city drug treatment officials say the unit did not adequately meet the needs of the city's hardcore addicts, many of whom require more support than detoxification. They also say public dollars would be better spent on long-term drug treatment, which can last up to a year and includes services such as methadone maintenance, counseling, job training and the use of buprenorphine, a prescription drug that cuts clients' craving for heroin.

WASHINGTON -- Portions of a $250 million federal laboratory under construction in Southeast Baltimore cannot be used as intended because excessive vibration in the building would compromise test results of highly sensitive research instruments. Now researchers, who were supposed to move into the new facility this fall, are waiting to hear whether they will be able to, government scientists said. The Biomedical Research Center, being built on the Johns Hopkins Bayview campus by the National Institutes of Health, has been promoted as a state-of-the-art facility for research programs on aging and drug abuse, and it is a cornerstone for redevelopment in the neighborhood.

The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force, an independent advisory panel, recently recommended that healthy men not be given PSA blood tests to detect prostate cancer. But that won't mean the end of diagnosis and treatment of the disease, the most common cancer and the second most common cause of cancer death in American men. Dr. E. James Wright, associate professor and director of the Division of Reconstructive and Neurological Urology and chief of urology at Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center, answers questions about diagnosis and the latest treatments, including measures to mitigate side effects such as incontinence and impotence.
