US District Attorney Sues OD for Medicare/Medicaid Fraud

"The U.S. Attorney's Office has filed a lawsuit against a Somerset [Kentucky] eye doctor and his practice, claiming he defrauded Medicare and Medicaid," reports WKYT. "The lawsuit claims...[Optometrist] Philip Robinson and 'Associates in Eye Care P.S.C.' sought and received payment from the two programs for unnecessary eye exams and services he didn't provide. The lawsuit says Robinson visited nursing homes and claimed he treated more than 100 patients in a single day. However, the lawsuit claims that isn't possible." See the report.
