The FBI and the HHS-OIG investigated our client for Health Care Fraud based on the client’s submitting over $7 million in alleged false claims to Medicare. The Government indicted our client on Conspiracy to commit Health Care Fraud, Health Care Fraud, Aggravated Identity Theft, and False Statements. On the first day of trial, after jury selection, we convinced the Government to agree to our client’s pleading guilty to a Class B misdemeanor, with a guaranteed sentence of probation. The other defendants pled guilty to various felonies and received sentences to terms of imprisonment of up to 133 months and restitution. The District Court sentenced our client to three years of probation, with no restitution obligation.
