South Korean citizen Young Yi was convicted of conspiracy to commit health care and wire fraud, among other charges, for directing employees at her sleep clinics, 1st Class Sleep Diagnostic Center, to solicit patients for additional, medically unnecessary studies, which she then billed to Medicare and private insurance. To hide the fraud, Yi concealed study results, lied about patient co-pays, and shifted bills across various entities she controlled. In all, Yi acquired more than $83 million from the scheme.
