A Michigan physician is banned from submitting claims to Medicare for three years as part of a settlement to resolve allegations of performing unnecessary surgeries and submitting false claims to physicians, according to the Justice Department.
Vinay Malviya, MD, was accused of submitting false claims to Medicare for unnecessary radical hysterectomies, excessive chemotherapy, and misrepresented evaluation and management services.
Under the agreement, federal programs will not pay for items or services furnished, ordered or prescribed by Dr. Malviya during the three-year window.
Dr. Malviya also agreed to pay $775,000 as part of the settlement.
