Board-Certified Houston Health Care Fraud Defense Lawyer

If you are a healthcare provider, a doctor, or a facility, you might get accused of:

• Billing for services not rendered
• Misrepresentation of services
• Misrepresentation of dates of services
• Unbundling of services
• Upcoding of services
• Double billing
• Billing for medically unnecessary services
• Ineligible dependents
• Provider shopping
• Phantom billing
• Submitting false statements

Convictions for health insurance fraud can go up to 20 years in cases where there was bodily harm. In cases where the fraud is proven to have caused a person’s death, the defendant can face life in prison. However, even when not convicted, an accusation can result in the loss of your medical license, fines, and years of probation, ruining your reputation, your business, and the people around you.

To convict someone of health care fraud, a prosecutor must prove that there was intention behind the false statements provided. This is where the assistance of an expert legal team is paramount. Our seasoned, board-certified Houston criminal defense legal team at John T. Floyd Law Firm has more than 50 years of combined experience and is known for our personalized strategies, tireless preparation, and proven courtroom skills.

At the helm of John T. Floyd Law Firm sits John T. Floyd, Board-Certified in Criminal Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization and rated a Super Lawyer on Thomson Reuters’ prominent list of outstanding lawyers. He has successfully represented top executives and leading business people under investigation for allegations of serious criminal conduct and regulatory violations with criminal implications. He is flanked by Chritophear Choate, one of the country’s most promising defense attorneys and former Vice-President of the International Law Society, and Mia Floyd, an associate attorney focusing on financial regulation and government investigation.

The attorneys at the John T. Floyd Law Firm understand that many white-collar cases, such as health care fraud cases, result from the most honest mistakes: coding miscalculations, clerical billing errors, or inadvertent compliance lapses. Just because an insurance provider, patient, or even the government itself identifies a financial discrepancy, that does not necessarily mean criminal intent. Therefore, we are proud to help clients fight against unfair prosecutions.

Every case is unique, but with every single one, a specialist in the matter will make the difference. Call John T. Floyd Law Firm to learn what the team can do for you.
