Houston Medicaid and Medicare Fraud Attorneys
The U.S. government loses billions of dollars each year to fraudulent claims and billing practices. So when federal investigators think they have found fraud, they come after that person hard. They want to make an example of you.
If you have been accused of health care fraud, you need a smart defense to counter the considerable resources of federal law enforcement. Troy Locklear, Attorney at Law has experience defending individuals against Medicare fraud and Medicaid fraud, prescription fraud and related federal crimes.
We represent physicians, pharmacists, chiropractors, administrators and employees of health care providers, or claimants accused of gaming the system. We handle federal charges in Texas and beyond. Contact us at 888-732-9462.
Health Care Fraud Defense
We have defended clients on accusations of:
- Inflated billing or double billing for procedures
- Bundling or billing for services not rendered
- Billing for phantom patients
- Fraudulent claims by patients
- Illicit prescription drug distribution (Vicodin, Xanax, etc.)
The government's billing regulations are complex and confusing. But without legal representation, federal authorities are often deaf to explanations of honest errors. Many times, the doctor or clinic manager is investigated for the criminal acts of a billing clerk or someone else in the organization.
If federal law enforcement is asking questions that hint at health care fraud, our attorneys can intervene to protect your rights and avoid an indictment if at all possible. We understand that these accusations threaten medical licenses, professional careers and crucial Medicare and Medicaid contracts.
If the government does charge you, we can provide a sophisticated defense to avoid a conviction or mitigate the sentence. Criminal defense trial lawyer Troy S. Locklear exhausts every possible avenue to clear his clients and keep them out of prison.
Contact us immediately if you believe you are the target of a fraud probe.
