Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced Thursday that over 400 people were charged for their involvement in healthcare fraud that included $1.3 billion in false filings.

The charges are part of the "largest ever healthcare fraud enforcement action" by the Medicare Fraud Strike Force, and included 115 doctors.

 

“Too many trusted medical professionals, like doctors, nurses, and pharmacists have chosen to violate their oaths and put greed ahead of their patients,” Sessions said during a press conference. 

“Amazingly, some have made their practices into multi-million dollar criminal enterprises. They seem oblivious to the disastrous consequences of their greed."

Defendants were charged for billing unnecessary prescriptions to Medicare, Medicaid and in some cases private insurance companies.
