Home Health Agency Owners Sentenced to Prison, Ordered to Pay $14.1M for Fraud

It’s been a busy month so far for home health care and hospice fraud.

On Thursday, the U.S. Department of Justice announced that two Detroit-area home health agency owners were sentenced to a combined 16 years of prison for their roles in a multimillion dollar scheme to defraud Medicare by billing for home health services that were never provided.

Hafiz Tahir, 49, and Tasneem Tahir, 44, both of Brownstown, Michigan, were sentenced by U.S. District Judge Marianne O. Battani of the Eastern District of Michigan to 10 and six years in prison, respectively. Judge Battani also ordered the defendants to pay restitution in the amount of $9,674,575 and $4,447,667, respectively, jointly and severally with their co-conspirators.

More than $8 million combined in money judgments were also levied against the two.
