McAllen Doctor Sentenced For Healthcare Fraud

A doctor who pled guilty to healthcare fraud four years ago is finally being sentenced to prison. Dr. Eduardo Carillo will serve two years and pay 30-thousand-dollars in restitution for his role in a scheme that billed Medicare for seeing patients that were actually already dead. He and his assistant also received kickbacks for referring patients to certain home healthcare agencies. He pled guilty to the charges in November of 2015 but wasn't sentenced until yesterday.
