Irving physician-owned company admits submitting bogus claims for anesthesia work that was never done

An Irving medical management company started by three anesthesiologists has agreed to plead guilty to mail fraud for submitting claims for anesthesia services that were never performed, according to federal court documents.

Limbic Partners LLC admitted to a scheme that bilked two insurance companies out of about $1 million through false claims, according to plea documents in the case. No doctors were charged.

The company was charged on Dec. 5 in connection with the scheme, which ran from April 2011 to April 2013, according to court documents. On Dec. 12, Limbic Partners filed plea documents in the case. A federal judge has to accept the plea before it becomes official. A sentencing date will then be scheduled.

The company faces up to five years' probation, victim restitution and a maximum fine of $500,000, records show.

How you be?

Did not Howard Dean devise the term:
'Culture of Corruption'?

It's 'in your face' big-time.

I'm mostly watching some old TV shows to stay busy during the holidays.

We have no family here and it's not the hectic overdone Christmases of the past. A relief.

It's good. I cut out a lot. Not worth it.

People go nuts. For what. I'm not a bah humbug. Just have become selective in how I celebrate/commemorate.

Stay safe and be well. You have your kitty companion, yes?!😺
