A federal information filed Friday in U.S. District Court charges 30-year-old Cameron J. Justice with conspiring to misuse a physicians’ registration number and aiding and abetting health care fraud.
The information charged that Justice allowed employees at the Justice Medical Complex to use the physician’s name and Medicare provider number to bill for services that the physician didn’t personally provide and to issue prescriptions to acquire controlled substances.
Dr. Augusto T. Abad of Charleston is facing similar charges, while Dr. John Theodore Tiano is scheduled to be sentenced March 18 after pleading guilty to those charges.
