Tricare is similar to Medicare in many ways. The main difference is that the Tricare is for those who currently serve in the military, retired military personnel, and their families.
Management of the Tricare program is conducted by the Defense Health Agency. As with any large federal agency, there are numerous patients and participating physicians across the world that operate within the Tricare system. As a result, fraudulent claims for payment under Tricare is common.
If you’re found to have committed Medicare fraud, you may be subject to hefty fines and other liabilities or disciplinary actions. In some of the worst cases, physicians have been incarcerated or had their licenses revoked. If you’re being investigated for fraud schemes involving Medicare, Medicaid, or Tricare, it would be wise to invest your time and money in our Medicare fraud defense lawyers at the Healthcare Fraud Group.
