No Arrests In The Abe Steinberg Fraud
A Florida radiologist, Dr. F. Abe Steinberg, who operates three MR
imaging facilities in the Boca Raton has been named in a lawsuit
alleging Medicare fraud though improper lease arrangements, kickbacks,
and upcoding. The complaint alleges three types of fraud: upcoding,
billing for medically unnecessary services, and billing for services
referred or ordered by others with whom there were financial
relationships not protected under the federal Stark II anti-kickback
law.
