@sacramentourbanmedia916: A Las Vegas nurse practitioner has been charged in what federal prosecutors describe as a $906 million healthcare fraud scheme involving Medicare and TRICARE. According to the U.S. Department of Justice, 49-year-old Marizel Yukee allegedly used proceeds from the scheme to fund an extravagant lifestyle, including the purchase of a $594,000 Ferrari, an $865,000 Bulgari necklace, a luxury home in Hawaii, and investments tied to a multimillion-dollar beach resort in the Philippines. Prosecutors allege Yukee operated mobile wound care clinics in multiple states and billed federal healthcare programs for medically unnecessary treatments, including procedures performed on hospice patients. She is also accused of falsifying medical records to support the claims. During the investigation, authorities seized approximately $35.2 million in assets, including luxury vehicles and high-end jewelry. Yukee faces multiple federal charges, including healthcare fraud, wire fraud conspiracy, money laundering, and illegal healthcare kickback offenses. Her attorney said she is presumed innocent and plans to challenge the allegations in court. The case is part of a nationwide DOJ healthcare fraud crackdown that charged 455 defendants in connection with more than $6.5 billion in alleged fraudulent claims.#fyp #viral
