A federal grand jury in Nevada has indicted a Henderson physician over an alleged $95 million scheme to bill Medicare for amniotic wound coverings applied to elderly patients, including people receiving hospice care, moving a spending scandal that has drawn federal scrutiny for two years into individual criminal court.
Stephen Dubin, 74, sole owner of Dubin Medical Consultants Inc., also known as Wound MD, faces one count of conspiracy to commit health care fraud and five counts of health care fraud. According to the Justice Department announcement, Medicare paid more than $54 million on the claims. He faces up to 10 years in prison on each count if convicted.
