Texas physician Dr. Jacques Roy, 54, set a U.S. Justice Dept. record when he was arrested for allegedly bilking $375 million in fraudulent payments from government health programs over 5 years.
Roy was indicted alongside 5 owners of home health agencies in the Dallas area, who were arrested on charges of conspiracy to commit health care fraud. Roy owned and operated Medistat Group Associates, a home health care certification practice that had more purported patients than any other medical practice in the U.S., according to the DOJ.
