Villages Health System Sees $350 Million in Medicare Overcharges
A health-care system serving the largest retirement community in the US has filed for bankruptcy after disclosing it potentially overbilled Medicare by at least $350 million, according to court filings.
The Villages Health System LLC, which operates clinics for retirees living in the Villages in Central Florida, said in a July 3 court filing that it logged patient diagnoses that 'were not clinically supported or otherwise did not meet Medicare coding and payment guidance.'
