Heart Surgeon Pleads Guilty in Blood Vessel Scam

email article
A heart surgeon who once saved the life of rapper 50 Cent is in hot water with the feds for performing thousands of unnecessary blood vessel procedures and bilking nearly $30 million from insurers, pleaded guilty to fraud last week.
Moses deGraft-Johnson, MD, a cardiovascular surgeon in Tallahassee, Florida, admitted to performing invasive and unnecessary angiography procedures, as well as falsely billing insurance companies for more than $29 million. He pleaded guilty to 56 counts of healthcare fraud, conspiracy to commit fraud, and aggravated identity theft.
Starting as early as 2015, deGraft-Johnson performed two diagnostic angiographies one on each leg in hundreds of patients, whether these were medically indicated or not. He would subsequently bill insurers for atherectomies, a much different procedure involving removal of plaque. In some instances, he simply falsified patients medical records to make claims on the procedures. ....

US-based Ghanaian surgeon to be jailed over $30 million insurance fraud

The cardiovascular surgeon who sought outpatients in poor communities to swindle and defraud for his own personal gain, has pleaded guilty to federal fraud charges.
deGraft-Johnson, owner of the now-shuttered Heart and Vascular Institute of North Florida, was indicted on numerous counts of health-care fraud and related charges.
He pleaded guilty to 56 counts of health-care fraud, conspiracy to commit fraud, and aggravated identity theft after he was accused of billing Capital Health Plan, Medicare, and others for procedures he never performed at the clinic and walking away with at least $29 million, which he used to bankroll a jet-set lifestyle.
He appeared before U.S. Chief District Judge Mark Walker via video link from the Federal Detention Center in Tallahassee, where he has been held since his indictment was unsealed. ....
