TX-AG v. Dental Network

Dental Network allegedly orchestrated a scheme to defraud Texas Medicaid by artificially increasing Medicaid patient volume through unlawful inducements, according to TX-AG. The dentists allegedly paid outside “marketers” on a per-patient basis to bring Medicaid patients into their clinics. The marketers allegedly recruited patients by offering cash, gift cards, Zelle payments, and other things of value to Medicaid beneficiaries and their families in exchange for showing up at the clinics.
