Fresenius Medical Gets Subpoena From U.S.

April 7, 2005

Fresenius Medical Care, a provider of kidney dialysis, got a subpoena from U.S. authorities conducting a civil and criminal probe into its relationships with doctors. The subpoena, issued by the U.S. Attorney in St. Louis, seeks records from Dec. 1, 1996, through the present. The authorities are also asking about the Bad Homburg, Germany-based company's joint ventures and executive pay, Fresenius Medical said in a statement to the Frankfurt exchange.
