BOSTON – A Florida man has been sentenced to probation for his role in a multimillion dollar Medicare fraud scheme.

Prosecutors say LaParl and an accomplice worked with foreign call centers to contact Medicare patients in the U.S. to ask if they were interested in arm, back, knee and shoulder braces “at little to no cost.”
They sold insurance information from the patients to a third party who used it to submit more than $109 million in fraudulent claims.
