The overbilling reportedly came to light during a state audit of Planned Parenthood several years ago. The PP president, Mark Salo, had notified branches about an audit plan and Martha Swiller of Planned Parenthood of Los Angeles told staff members, "This is bad," the qui tam lawyer Los Angeles said.
Ultimately, audit reports said the abortion business failed to comply with published billing requirements and a state letter set the loss for one situation alone at $5 million plus.
