submitted approximately $846,000 in fraudulent claims to Medicare
was ordered to pay $527,023 in restitution
so....why wasn't he ordered to pay back the full $846,000
so...he still made a $300,000 profit out of this fraud....and get 3 years in prison.....that's $100,000/per year....The difference between an immigrant and an illegal alien is the equivalent of the difference between a burglar and a houseguest.
