From the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)- Office of Inspector General (OIG) website):
In May 2015, Amaury Perez was indicted on charges of conspiracy to commit healthcare fraud and money laundering. Investigators believe that Perez and co-conspirators were involved in a scheme to fraudulently bill Medicare approximately $2.5 million.
Perez co-owned Gold Care Home Health Services, a home healthcare company in Tampa, Florida. According to the investigation, Perez and a co-conspirator used Medicare beneficiary information to submit over $2.5 million in false home health claims to Medicare for services that were never performed or authorized by a physician. Proceeds from the fraud were then laundered through a number of fictitious shell companies in Florida.
Investigators believe Perez fled to Cuba.
