The Justice Department announced nearly two dozen arrests tied to largescale, elaborate schemes to exploit the pandemic.
NEW YORK -- The Justice Department on Wednesday announced nearly two dozen arrests tied to what the agency called largescale, elaborate schemes to exploit the COVID pandemic, including a doctor from Long Island and a postal worker from New Jersey.
Dr. Perry Frankel, 63, from Long Island, is accused of an alleged scheme to defraud Medicare and Medicaid of over $1.3 million in claims connected to testing. "As alleged, exploiting a public health crisis by using patients who received COVID-19 tests at mobile testing sites to fraudulently bill Medicare and Medicaid for fictitious office visits is reprehensible," United States Attorney Breon Peace said."This office and our law enforcement partners will vigorously prosecute those who take advantage of the pandemic to steal from taxpayer-funded programs.
