Penalties for Medical Bill Fraud
Medical Bill Fraud is considered to be a “wobbler,” or in other words, the verdict can land on either a misdemeanor or a felony. Each case differs depending on the severity of the crime allegedly committed and the penalties can vary.
Misdemeanor penalties – If convicted at a misdemeanor level, the penalties can include up to 1 year in county jail and up to $10,000 in fines.
Felony penalties – If convicted at a federal level, the individual could face 2 to 5 years in jail and/or a $50,000 fine depending on the crime.
