Medicare and Insurance Fraud

Dallas, TX Viewed 27 times. Posted 4 months ago in Fraud

I work for a physician who has us regularly over charge certain cases to maximize billing. The charges are unrelated to actual services performed. He says it is common practice and chastised me for not knowing "how this business works."

Isn't this fraud?

If so, what should I do about it? - Is this your question? Add additional information

Any charges for work not done can be viewed as a fraud because it is deceit that gains a money benefit from another.

Without more detail, though, nothing can be conclusively suggested to you. See an attorney to find out what options, if any, you have.

It sounds like fraud to me and very blatant. Contact an attorney and consider getting another job, the doc will eventually caught and you don't want to be part of that.
