Fraud sign made of wooden blocks

Medicaid fraud is a serious matter. Every time someone commits Medicaid fraud, it ultimately steals funds away from innocent people who rely on them. If you’re a medical professional such as a doctor, a charge of Medicaid fraud can ruin your career.

What Is Medicaid Fraud?

Medicaid fraud is a serious offense on both the state and federal levels. It can happen both knowingly and unknowingly when someone avails themselves of Medicaid funds that they don’t qualify for or if they misuse the funds they are entitled to.

Both patients and doctors can be guilty of Medicaid fraud if they aren’t careful.

Doctors are most likely to get involved in Medicaid fraud because of situations like:

  • Billing for services or procedures that never happened
  • Issuing unnecessary prescription drugs
  • Misrepresenting the date, location, or provider of a service
  • Billing a non-covered service as one that is covered under Medicaid
  • Incorrectly reporting a diagnosis or procedure

Consequences of Medicaid Fraud

Medical professionals don’t always become guilty of Medicaid fraud because of greed. Sometimes, doctors become involved out of a genuine desire to help patients with limited payment and treatment options.

Whatever the intentions may be, Medicaid fraud is still a crime and can carry some severe penalties. Doctors found guilty of Medicaid fraud may have to pay restitution and face jail time in addition to the loss of their professional reputation.

    Client

    Mr. Manciagli has lived and traveled all over the world, including Latin America, and his legal work has taken him to Colombia, Mexico, Guatemala, Panama, and Jamaica. It was important for me, as a foreigner in the U.S., to have an attorney who understood me from a cultural level and who I could speak to in Spanish. If you or a loved one needs a criminal defense attorney, Jeff Manciagli is the attorney you should call.

    My lawyer in FL recommended Jeff when I got arrested in GA and didn't know what to do. I got pulled over in a cash-cow speed trap town 20 miles above the state line and they called a K-9 unit and got probable cause to search my car. I was livid and felt so violated. Luckily I hired the best of the best. Jeff always called/emailed me back promptly when I had questions about my case, and Always spoke to me as an equal. He took care of everything and when it came time to go to court was honest and logical in discussing what was best and how my plea would affect my future. Under his council I felt calm and in control. I was facing 3 misdemeanor charges and got them all dropped on the condition that I do a small amount of community service, pay a fine, and don't get in any more trouble for a few months. I didn't even get points on my license for the original speeding ticket. At the end of the day, money is replaceable- my time and freedom are not. If I or anyone I know ever has trouble in GA again, I will be calling Jeff.
