From July 2020 to December 2021, Dr. Schenker allegedly used codes that indicated to CMS he had performed detailed exams of patients, when he had actually only provided a COVID-19 vaccine or test, the department said.
The Justice Department has recently undertaken a nationwide coordinated law enforcement effort to combat COVID-19 fraud.
The claims resolved by Dr. Schenker’s settlement are only allegations. No determination of guilt was made.
