Pain specialist Dr. Jonathan Daitch, a principal in Ft. Myers-based Advanced Pain Management Specialists, P.A., has agreed to pay more than $1.7 million to resolve allegations that he violated the False Claims Act.  Dr. Daitch caused Medicare and Tricare to be billed for medically-unnecessary urine drug testing performed at Advanced Pain’s in-house laboratory.  In addition, Daitch received kickbacks for anesthesia services.  A co-owner of Advanced Pain, Dr. Michael Frey, previously agreed to pay $2.8 million to settle similar claims.  USAO MD Fla
