Detroit-Area Doctor Sentenced for Widespread Cancer Treatment Fraud

July 15th, 2015

Via: The Detroit News:

U.S. District Judge Paul Borman on Friday called Fata’s crimes “horrific and unprecedented” before sentencing him for the complex, far-reaching conspiracy aimed at defrauding Medicare and Blue Cross Blue Shield of $34 million by prescribing unnecessary treatments. Fata, 50, is ineligible for parole.

Fata’s conspiracy ensnared several hundred patients across Metro Detroit. He was accused of giving cancer patients overly aggressive doses of chemotherapy while treating others with the powerful drug for cancers they did not have.
