MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS CHARGED WITH WHITE COLLAR CRIMES
All Charges Dismissed
INSURANCE COMPANIES CONSPIRE WITH PROSECUTORS
Insurance companies are working with prosecutors to set up and arrest medical professionals on various pre-planned counts of insurance fraud, medical fraud and related charges. The White Collar crime sections of the insurance companies utilize a three step process.
First they investigate. Depositions in car accident cases focus on the medical provider and his/her finances and not the patient injuries. (This is a sure sign they are looking at you.) Next comes the economic attack. Delays in payments, challenges to the necessity of treatment - anything to slow down your cash flow.
The White Collar units then decide whether to go for the criminal charges.
Patients with peculiar complaints and inconsistent histories "drop in" without appointments.
IRS or state tax agencies are contacted.
A sales presentation book is prepared, except what the White Collar unit is selling is you. It is shopped around to the state insurance commissioner, tax authorities, medical boards and prosecutorial agencies.
"But I haven't done anything wrong !" We often hear this from our medical provider clients. We know. We understand. What you have done wrong is to violate some secret insurance company database created profile that presumes guilt. Even if you are not guilty they don't care. The insurance companies follow the "blue sky" theory. Cause someone to be arrested and other practitioners will run scared. They run from the rain to the blue skies. Even if you eventually win, the insurance companies always win because they make money by sending your friends and associates scurrying in fear.
We have successfully defended many of these cases and we are presently litigating five of them in the United States District Court. We use a variety of strategies depending upon the situation, but we are always proactive. If charges are filed, we have a team of experienced legal and medical professionals to defend you.
If you think that you are the subject of this type of investigation you should contact our office without delay. We can do a basic assessment for a reasonable fee. If you are under attack, we can help you prepare your defense.
