The United States contended that, from Jan. 4, 2005, to Sept. 15, 2008, Dr. Maddur submitted, or caused to be submitted, claims for payment to TRICARE (formerly known as the Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Uniformed Services or CHAMPUS) that misrepresented the services rendered, resulting in false claims for payment being made to TRICARE, according to the release.
The investigation leading to the settlement was conducted by the U.S. Department of Defense, DCIS Phoenix Resident Agency and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Robert K. Lu, Assistant U.S. Attorney, District of Arizona, handled the matter in federal court.
