Dr. Chun, 59, must also forfeit $278,900, the proceeds of his offenses.
Dr. Chun was convicted on five separate counts of receiving kickbacks. He prescribed a large volume of the expensive liquid fentanyl spray Subsys. Daniel Tondre, 52, a sales representative for Insys Therapeutics, the drug’s manufacturer and distributor, paid Dr. Chun $2,400 to $3,000 for bogus speaking events he organized in exchange for prescribing more Subsys. Medicare Part D paid more than $4.5 million for Dr. Chun’s Subsys prescriptions.
Mr. Tondre is scheduled for sentencing Dec. 15.
