LOS ANGELES—A Seal Beach doctor pleaded guilty on June 2 to a federal conspiracy charge, admitting he participated in a scheme to submit $8.4 million in phony claims to Medi-Cal for services never provided.
Dr. Keyvan Amirikhorheh, 61, who worked as a physician at Los Angeles Community Clinic, and four co-defendants raked in $6.6 million from fraudulent claims submitted to the Family Planning, Access, Care and Treatment program for family planning services, diagnostic testing, and prescriptions for nonexistent patients, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
