California ambulance company settles Medicare fraud allegations

By Qui Tam

ADVERTISEMENTS
The president of a Los Angeles-based ambulance company, Greybor Medical Transportation, Inc., and his wife have agreed to pay the government $6 million to settle civil allegations that they fraudulently overbilled Medicare.

The press release from the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Central District of California says that the False Claims Act lawsuit alleged that Greybor submitted claims for ambulance transport to Medicare that falsely stated a patient was ?bed-confined,? when in fact the Medicare beneficiary was not. Medicare does not pay for non-emergency ambulance transportation unless no other option is available and only if the patient is bed-confined.
