Individuals who find themselves under investigation for Medicaid Fraud are typically believed to have run afoul of one or more of Medicaid’s eligibility requirements.
Investigators may believe you have hidden cash or assets in order to apply for benefits, or in other cases, that you have allowed others to use your Medicaid benefits, or sold items like prescription drugs or medical devices obtained through your Medicaid benefits.
These tend to be complex cases that carry a variety of potential charges.
A prescription drug distribution ring that uses Medicaid to acquire pills will face serious drug charges on top of complaints for Welfare Fraud, Grand Larceny, and possibly many more.
Even simply failing to disclose an asset that would make you ineligible for benefits, and then using Medicaid, can result in larceny and fraud charges, which can land you in jail and leave you paying off hefty fines for years.
When facing complex allegations like fraud, it’s important that you work with attorneys who understand how to defend on multiple fronts.
