A Farmington Hills, Michigan, man who was already barred from billing Medicare has been arrested and charged with helping submit more than $4.75 million in false claims for psychotherapy that patients at a Detroit adult day care center never received, federal prosecutors said. Emory Matthews, 62, was indicted by a federal grand jury in the Eastern District of Michigan and arrested on Sept. 14, according to the U.S. Department of Justice.
The charges are allegations. Matthews is presumed innocent unless and until he is proven guilty in court, and no trial date has been announced.
