A pharmacist in Nebraska has pleaded guilty to what is possibly the largest case of Medicaid fraud in the state. Scott Tran, owner of Tran Pharmacy, submitted hundreds of fraudulent claims for tobramycin solution (Tobi) in the names of his customers’ children, The Journal Star reported. By pleading guilty on September 29, 2015, Tran agreed to a restitution of $14.4 million. Assistant US Attorney Alan Everett told The Journal Star that the government could recoup close to $3 million from the pharmacist’s home, store, bank accounts, stocks, and life insurance policies. US Magistrate Judge Cheryl Zwart noted that Tran will not likely serve as a pharmacist ever again. “In a profession such as yours, employment is a major concern. Do you understand that?” Zwart asked, according to The Journal Star. “Yes, your honor,” Tran said. – See more at: http://www.pharmacytimes.com/news/pharmacist-admits-to-144-million-medicaid-fraud#sthash.7qbjI7jF.dpuf
