DME FRAUD MONEY LAUNDERER PLEADS GUILTY TO CONSPIRACY IN MASSACHUSETTS!

Chalk up another Medicare fraud guilty plea! A Cape Cod man has admitted in Federal court to conspiring to launder the proceeds of a $6 MILLION healthcare fraud!

According to court documents the defendant acted as the front man for a sham durable medical equipment (DME) company. His accomplices then submitted fraudulent claims to Medicare for orthotic braces and supports for beneficiaries that were not medically necessary and WERE NEVER PRESCRIBED! Payments were received through bank accounts opened by the defendant and then transferred to accounts controlled by his co-conspirators.

Records seized during the investigation showed that numerous patients had written to the company and even returned boxes of DME products indicating they did not need, had not requested, and would not use the items! Some even threatened to notify Medicare of the fraud if they received future statements showing billings.

The defendant faces up to 10 years in prison when sentenced in January 2027.

A Cape Cod man pleaded guilty today to a money laundering conspiracy for laundering proceeds in connection with a more than $6 million health care fraud scheme.

THE INCALCULABLE COSTS OF HEALTHCARE FRAUD: WHAT ABOUT THE PATIENTS?

When the headlines scream about the MILLIONS and BILLIONS of dollars lost to healthcare fraud it attracts the attention of readers and viewer... for a short time. But behind every taxpayer dollar obtained through fraud there is an often-overlooked factor that the media rarely recognize -- the patients. The Medicare beneficiaries. The Medicaid recipients. The retired Veterans. The Railroad retirees. All of the individuals whose personal information and private health data were abused by the perpetrators -- medical licensees and so-called healthcare professionals -- for personal financial gain!

This article highlights the fallout from a case that was prosecuted over a decade ago, and focuses on the patient harm done by a Michigan oncologist who treated non-existent cancers for the purpose of fraudulently billing healthcare insurers. It is worth the time to read and realize the myriad of stories detailing various types of fraud cases all have a common denominator -- a human being behind the dollars!

What is your opinion? Should his request for compassionate release be granted, or even considered?

Over a decade after disgraced Michigan oncologist Farid Fata was sentenced to 45 years in federal prison, he’s once again asking for compassionate release. His victims aren’t having it.

THREE OHIO COMMUNITY COLLEGE OFFICIALS INDICTED IN CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE!

The former President/CEO of Eastern Gateway Community College in Steubenville, Ohio and two co-conspirators have been charged in a 24-count indictment with Engaging in a Pattern of Corrupt Activity, Aggravated Theft over $1.5 Million, Theft in Office, Telecommunications Fraud, Bribery, and Having an Unlawful Interest in a Public Contract! The three entered into a conspiracy to loot nearly $20 MILLION from the college, primarily from Federal Pell grants, and other Federal and state financial aid programs.

As a former Fraud Investigator with the Auditor's Special Investigations Unit (SIU), I have been awaiting a resolution in this case for several years. I was part of the original team of investigators and auditors that initiated a special investigation into the school after receiving complaints of staff members using college purchase cards for personal expenses. That investigation led to further allegations that eventually morphed into the broader corruption investigation resulting in these indictments.

According to the indictment and statements from the Auditor of State, the college president approved payments to several for-profit companies owned and operated by the two co-conspirators despite knowledge that the payments constituted incentives and other compensation related to student enrollment and financial aid which were prohibited by Federal law. Among the activities alleged, the companies disbursed financial aid to ineligible students and failed to confirm actual class attendance or withdrawals by students, all of which resulted in millions of dollars of illegal payments to the companies. The gross financial mismanagement by college staff eventually led to the collapse and closure of the college.

QUEENS, NY PHARMACIST CHARGED IN $31 MILLION MEDICAID FRAUD!

The owner and operator of two pharmacies in the Jackson Heights area of New York City and his businesses have been indicted on 24 counts of defrauding the New York Medicaid program of OVER $31.8 MILLION! The charges include grand larceny, healthcare fraud, and money laundering.

According to Medicaid fraud investigators, the pharmacies dispensed expensive HIV drugs, then offered cash payments to patients for their medications and re-billed those same prescription drugs again. The scheme focused on Medicaid patients and participants in the state's AIDS Drug Assistance Program. Envelopes with cash were carried by drivers in medication bags and color-coded envelopes, with the amount depending upon the program!

A companion civil fraud action has been filed against the pharmacies seeking recovery of damages. In addition to the re-selling of previously dispensed drugs, the complaint alleges the pharmacies also obtained drugs from illicit sources and re-sold those without the necessary safety and hygiene measures to insure the integrity of the medications.

The defendant, who was arrested at LaGuardia Airport in June as he was about to board a one-way flight to Canada, was found to be in possession of a U.S. passport, two Colombian passports, $5,000 in U.S. currency, and $1.3 million Colombian pesos! He is scheduled for his next court appearance on October 14, 2026.
