Monitor Mondays

1.2 Billion in Fraudulent Claims for Wound Care Procedures


Listen Later

Evoking the age-old adage of having “skin in the game,” a Phoenix, Arizona couple last month entered a plea of guilty to one of the largest healthcare frauds in U.S. history.

The couple pleaded guilty to criminal charges involving the submission of $1.2 billion in fraudulent claims to Medicare, Medicaid, and other insurers for wound care procedures. The husband-and-wife team have agreed to pay more than $600 million in restitution and face over 20 years in prison, according to famed whistleblower attorney Mary Inman, who will return to Monitor Mondays for its next edition.

The venerable broadcast will also include these instantly recognizable features:

• Monday Rounds: Ronald Hirsch, MD, vice president of R1 RCM, will be making his Monday Rounds.

• The RAC Report: Healthcare attorney Knicole Emanuel, partner at the law firm of Nelson Mullins, will report the latest news about auditors.

• Risky Business: Healthcare attorney David Glaser, shareholder in the law offices of Fredrikson & Byron, will join the broadcast with his trademark segment.

• Legislative Update: Adam Brenman, senior government affairs liaison for Zelis, will report on the latest news concerning healthcare legislation.
