A Medicare fraud mastermind accused of swindling over half a billion dollars by pushing unnecessary genetic tests and paying off doctors and recruiters has been caught after a three-year manhunt. Khalid Satary, 54, allegedly orchestrated a massive scheme from 2016 to 2019, billing for tests worth $10K–$20K each, using shady telemedicine networks and fake marketing. He fled the U.S. after indictment, appeared on the FBI’s Most Wanted list, and was finally apprehended in the Middle East with a fake Mexican passport. Now back in the U.S., he faces up to 30 years in prison if convicted on charges including healthcare fraud and money laundering — a stunning win for justice and a chilling reminder of how deep healthcare fraud can go.
