Project Nightingale
Upcoding allegations tied to a shell vendor, claims spikes, and internal coding guidance.
Mercy connects the whistleblower tip, claims exports, internal emails, and vendor contracts into a coherent allegation that a billing services intermediary drove systematic upcoding across two clinics in Q2 2024.
Former revenue-cycle manager reports that Meridian Care hired Hollow Brook Analytics to “optimize” billing. Within six weeks, high-acuity claim codes spiked and internal staff were told to stop documenting prior authorization exceptions in email.
Case trust boundary
This panel turns the TEE, attestation, and secure key release path into artifacts an analyst or buyer can inspect.
This prototype shows the attestation envelope Mercy expects before sensitive prompts and evidence are mounted in production.
