How did the alleged fraud scheme work?

Ali, who is not in American custody and is believed to be in Pakistan, faces allegations of conspiracy, wire fraud and money laundering. He could not be reached for comment.

According to prosecutors, he owned and operated a company called Prommed Solutions LLC, which was held in Arizona, but was located in Pakistan. Court letters say the firm provided credentials and enrollment, medical coding and billing services.

Between April 2021 and July 2023, prosecutors say Ali attacked agreements with at least 41 drug abuse clinics in Erizona, with two in court papers as TUSA and CHWC. Both companies were listed as outpatient treatment centers, which, according to court papers, provided treatment services for people suffering from drugs and alcohol addiction.

In order to receive and keep patients who bill the state’s Medicade system, the owners reportedly paid kickback and bribe to the owners of Sobber Holmes. However, a premium was placed on patients who were nominated for Arizona’s original Americans, known as AIHP, as they could achieve high reimbursement from the state system.

An official of the Department of Justice said, “More and more in the Phoenix area, they were receiving patients from homeless shelters, infiltration, road corners, hospitals, detox centers,” an officer of a justice department said, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly.

“They were going into the original American reservation in the van and were offering drug abuse treatment and free rooms and boards in Phoenix. And many times, the whole families or couples were admitted to it, and they were largely alcoholic or opioid or methy addicts.”

As part of the alleged conspiracy, Ali cracked and nominated these clinics as providers with Arizonna’s Medicade System, even though clinics did not provide legitimate care to patients. Ali’s company then built the state system for clinics, which was in exchange for a 5 percent deduction of the amount paid by the state.

According to the prosecutors, he tried to cover false claims, to show the medical notes incorrectly or to show that patients participated in therapy when they were not or that therapy was provided when it was not.

Prosecutors say the owners of Ali and Tusa and CHWC made false claims for some $ 57 million, and were paid by the state about $ 52 million.

Overall, Ali deposited some $ 650 million in false claims, and he and 41 clinics received approximately $ 564 in payment from Arizona’s Medicade System.

Prosecutors say that Ali used about $ $ $ $ about $ $ $ $ about $ $ $ about $ 25 million, which he received under a plan to buy a house on a golf estate in Dubai, UAE.
