Convicted$3.1MRestitution
Joyce Agu was convicted for conspiracy to pay and receive kickbacks and was also ordered to pay $3,068,952 in restitution. According to TX-AG, Ms. Agu undermined the health care system and maliciously exploited funding that comes from hardworking taxpayers by paying other individuals to certify that her clients were able to receive home health services in order to then bill Medicare, despite the fact that the individuals did not qualify for the services, or even receive services at all in some cases.
