) - A federal judge on Friday sentenced a former Daphne doctor to four years for willfully failing to pay restitution from a previous health care fraud conviction.
Tarabein had been ordered to pay more than $15 million in restitution after he pleaded guilty in 2017 to running an insurance scam in which he induced patients to visit his pain clinic so he could bill health care benefit programs for unnecessary tests and procedures. A judge had sentenced Tarabein to five years in prison in the health care fraud case, but the Bureau of Prisons released him to house arrest in Fairhope during the COVID-19 pandemic. Tarabein re-issued the 2018 cashier’s check to himself during that time, according to prosecutors.
The jury heard evidence that he fraudulently deposited money into his bank account in December 2021, using information from another account that he had agreed to forfeit and that had been closed years earlier as part of his 2017 conviction.
