FIAM - The Second Opinion: Saved from Surgery By Family
Welcome to Fraud in a Moment - This 7-minute story shares the scamming of an unsuspecting senior who is told she'll be in a wheelchair within two years if she doesn't have knee surgery — immediately. Her nephew, a physical therapist, reads the MRI and drives 40 miles to get her a second opinion. The second surgeon recommends physical therapy. She never has the surgery. The complaint exposes $847,000 in fraudulent Medicare billings across 22 patients.
