Virginia Doctor indicted for fraud along with Ofx reps

Quote












From the DOJ press release:

"Michael Jenkins, a former Orthofix Territory Manager, has agreed to plead guilty to committing health care fraud."

I am guessing this was the rep. I did not know this guy. Anyone?

The DPM was accused of lying in a Grand Jury appearance. If you just breath the wrong way you will commit perjury. Remember the FED's have a license to cheat, lie, manipulate, fabricate anything they want to get a conviction. And they will pile shit on, because they can. Look at your Yahoo News this morning and read about the man from Brooklyn who was jailed for 25 yrs for a murder he did not commit.

The prosecutor lied, cheated, manipulated and fabricated the facts/evidence and put an innocent man behind bars. How many stories have we heard over the yrs with stories like that. It's a rigged, corrupt system no different in many ways than NKorea, China or Iran. When the FED's have you as a target, it's game over, game, set, match. Unless you have millions to fight and steel balls to face additional pain if you lose, you take your pound of salt and call it a day.

You are comparing apples to oranges. orthofix did and admitted to the crimes. Good and bad in every organziation including the government. this story doesn't excuse orthofix's behavior though. And i agree with the person who said that reps are doing what they're told because the directives from from the top.

Not to mention, the Feds have data mining software and the ability to pinpoint origin of these posts. As the clock ticks on they'll be developing their case against you, no doubt. Sleep tight.LOL.

Anybody care to speculate on what caused Emmie to jump ship?

If someone believe's in their innocence, they should fight for it! You only have your name and reputation, nothing should keep you from ruining it. Look at Guerieri, Salzman, Fields, etc., they knew they did wrong, and they knew that there were so many people who could prove it. Those guys can never have the kind of careers that they once had. Everyone needs to take their medicine

Wow.
Sounds like the rep got out of trouble by 'playing ball' with the DOJ. To think that Dr could be going to prison for 5 years and paying a million dollar fine for trying to help the Ofx rep for some reason is crazy! Just wow. Why on earth would she have done that? Was the rep a male model?

Anybody ever think that this Dr was just trying to help a patient and not a rep?

If this dr was doing buy and bill and violating STARK it's one thing. If Dr was NOT doing a buy and bill program then the only thing in it for her was getting the patients bone completely healed and remodeled. Was the patient diabetic, a smoker, was their an MRI performed?

Curious to know more details.
 






Read the DOJ press release- it wasn't just one patient as you are implying. Not even close.

They ( the rep, doctor and MA) were systematically creating fraudulent notes, and altering notes to get reimbursed by CMS for a substantial period of time. That is something that cannot be defended.

Why on earth the Dr would do this is beyond me, unless she was getting kickbacks like some of the other situations, but there doesn't seem to be any evidence of that. Doctors do know that falsifying notes is a no-no, ya know.
