The owners and manager of a string of Houston health companies have been sent to prison for bilking Medicare out of millions of dollars in services. They would bill Medicare for procedures done for people who were dead or in prison. Felix Amos, a senior citizen himself at age 72, was given 30 years in prison. His wife had already been sentenced to six years in prison while an office manager received a 12-year sentence. The trio improperly billed Medicare for more than $21 million and spent it on things like a $3.5 million home and a small business for the office manager.
