Doctor who gave hundreds of healthy patients chemotherapy jailed for 45 years after making millions from insurance companies...

A doctor from Detroit, Michigan who misdiagnosed patients with cancer, giving them unnecessary chemotherapy treatment in order to claim millions in health insurance has been sentenced to 45 years in prison.

Around 553 patients received unnecessary infusions or injections from Dr Farid Fata. In September, the 50 year old haematologist-oncologist pleaded guilty to giving cancer treatments to misdiagnosed patients, telling some that they had a terminal blood cancer called multiple myeloma.

Feta also pleaded guilty to 13 counts of Medicare fraud, one count of conspiracy to receive payments and two counts of money laundering.

He was forced to forfeit $17.6 million that he had amassed from Medicare and private insurance companies.

Fata delivered an emotional apology in court as he was sentenced to over four decades in prison. Full story...
