Healthcare Fraudster Gibbs Sentenced to 84 Months in Prison for $1.9 Million Scheme

Gibbs, the owner of a private clinic, was sentenced to 84 months in federal prison for her involvement in a healthcare fraud scheme. As part of the scheme, Gibbs bill Medicare for services that were either unnecessary or never provided, defrauding the government out of millions of dollars.

In addition to falsifying Medicare claims, Gibbs also engaged in illegal kickbacks to incentivize referrals to her clinic. These kickbacks further exploited the Medicare system for personal gain. The total amount of illicit proceeds that Gibbs forfeited was nearly $1.9 million.

The sentencing of Gibbs serves as a strong message that those who commit healthcare fraud will be held accountable for their actions. It sends a warning to others who may be considering similar schemes that they will face severe consequences for defrauding the government and exploiting vulnerable patients for financial gain.
