Dr. Ajrawat and his wife, Sukhveen Kaur Ajrawat, MD, owned and operated Washington Pain Management Center in Greenbelt, Md
From at least January 2011 through May 2014, the Ajrawats defrauded government payers by filing claims for procedures that were not performed and billing for more expensive procedures than were actually performed.
A federal jury convicted the Ajrawats Sept. 4, 2015. However, the government dismissed the charges against Sukhveen Ajrawat after her death Feb. 1, according to the DOJ.
In addition to his prison sentence, Dr. Ajrawat was ordered to pay $3.1 million in restitution.
