I guess these desis thought they will never be caught
by Rishi Wed May 15, 2013 12:58 pm
The following Chicago-area residents were charged:
• Ankur Roy, 36, of Miami, Fla., Akash Patel, 33, of Morton Grove, and Dipen Desai, 33, of Chicago, who are described as owners of Selectcare Health Inc., an outpatient respiratory and physical therapy provider with locations in Skokie and Park Ridge.
Messrs. Roy, Patel and Desai are accused of submitting claims to Medicare and Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Illinois for services that could not have been provided, either because a respiratory therapist was not working at the times described or because the services described were in excess of any care scheduled for their patients, federal authorities allege.
Between April 2010 and April 2011, the defendants were paid $2.2 million from Medicare and $321,000 from Blue Cross, according to an indictment. Each man has been charged with six counts of health care fraud.
“Mr. Desai plans a vigorous defense to the case. He recognizes the seriousness of the allegations, and he plans to enter a plea of not guilty at the arraignment,” said his lawyer, Lawrence Hyman of Chicago. The other defendants did not respond to calls for comment.
• Dr. Nalini Ahluwalia, 58, an internist from Burr Ridge, is charged with accepting a $1,000 kickback for referring two patients to a home health care agency in August 2012. The payment was recorded, the government alleges.
An informant told federal investigators that Dr. Ahluwalia previously had accepted kickbacks of $400 or $500 per patient for referrals of Medicare patients. She is charged with one count of violating the anti-kickback law.

He probably googled under "fukular economics" and apart from Laloo, Mulayam, K'nidhi, Shibu Soren, YSR and Jagan, he got a Patel and a Desai! Since all those other guys are well known, he decided to post on Patel-Desai.
