FBI Investigating Over 2,600 Cases Of Possible Health Care Fraud
SUBMITTED BY STEVEN MEYEROWITZ ON THU, 05/03/2012 - 12:41PM
On the heels of the federal government's announcement that it has charged 107 people – including doctors, nurses and other licensed medical professionals – for their alleged participation in Medicare fraud schemes involving $452 million in false Medicare billing, one might justifiably think, OK, that’s it, that’s the limit of what the federal government thinks is health care fraud. Right? Well, maybe not.
The FBI says that over 500 agents and analysts are currently investigating more than 2,600 cases of alleged health care fraud.
That’s a large number, especially when one realizes that last year – a banner year for health care fraud prosecutions – the so-called “Health Care Fraud Prevention and Enforcement Action Team” says that it obtained more than “300 disruptions and dismantlements of criminal enterprises,” charged more than 1,600 individuals, and obtained over 700 convictions.
The bottom line: the efforts to prosecute health care fraud resulted in more than $4 billion returned to the U.S. Treasury and other fraud victims. And, apparently, there is more to come

Editor's note: FBI P L E A S E send some of your 500 agents to investigate the Gore, Sykes and Tyler cases presently in the Probate Court of Cook County. The victims are well stocked with reams of documentation and willing witnesses who will testify against the fraudulent judges and lawyers involved with these and other cases.
