On June 13, 2024, two health care executives of Done Global Inc were indicted for health care fraud related charges.  The indictment alleges that the two participated in a scheme to distribute Adderall over the internet, conspire to commit health care fraud in connection with the submission of false and fraudulent claims for reimbursement for Adderall and other stimulants, and obstruct justice.

“As alleged, these defendants exploited the COVID-19 pandemic to develop and carry out a $100 million scheme to defraud taxpayers and provide easy access to Adderall and other stimulants for no legitimate medical purpose,” said Attorney General Merrick B. Garland.   These arrests mark the DOJ’s 1st criminal drug distribution prosecutions related to prescribing via telemedicine, the agency said.

Conaway & Strickler represent healthcare providers in fighting against allegations such as these by agencies such as the DOJ, HHS-OIG, FBI, Georgia Medicaid Fraud Control Units and cases nationwide.  We have litigated federal healthcare cases in NJ, NY, LA, FL, TX and GA.  We also represent healthcare providers in medical and professional licensing board matters as well.

Remember, physicians have to report issues to their professional liability carrier, insurers, etc. AND to the Georgia Composite Board.  Thus, it is important to contact us immediately when an agent comes knocking asking “for just a few files” or “just a few questions”.  Do not go it alone.
