Texas Medicaid Fraud Control Unit Helps Dismantle $142 Million Genetic Testing Fraud Scheme, Seizes $7.1M in Assets

Texas Attorney General Press Release:

ApolloMDx offered illegal kickbacks in order to purchase both recipient information from marketers and orders for genetic testing from doctors. In some cases, doctors made fraudulent diagnoses to make it appear as though recipients were eligible for testing when they were not. In addition, ApolloMDx altered dates of service on testing orders to make it appear that multiple DNA samples were collected on different dates to enable billing for multiple dates of service.
