Linda Morrow pleaded guilty Friday to insurance fraud after being extradited from Israel where she and her husband had gone on the run.
A woman who ran a cosmetic surgery business in southern California with her husband pleaded guilty Friday to ripping off insurance companies by billing $65 million worth of tummy tucks, breast enhancements and nose jobs as medically necessary procedures.
Prosecutors said that between 2007 and 2013, the Morrows submitted up to $65 million in bogus insurance claims and collected tens of millions in payouts for procedures that shouldn’t have been covered at all. The couple would actively market their services as coverable under insurance plans, and would instruct patients to falsely fill out medical forms claiming they had come to the clinic to receive medically necessary treatments, prosecutors said.
The couple would also convince patients to undergo multiple procedures at once in order to maximize the amount that could be billed to the insurance companies, prosecutors said. In some cases, patients suffered serious complications due to having too many procedures done at the same time, investigators said.
