Description

From Preston Hollow Advocate: By Audrey Love August 17th, 2020 Former Dallas-area dentist Dr. Richard Malouf has been ordered to pay close to $16.5 million for filing fraudulent Medicaid claims while running his now-defunct orthodontic clinics. On Tuesday, District court judge Catherine Mauzy's final judgment held Malouf responsible for 1,842 violations under the Texas Medicaid Fraud Prevention Act. Mauzy granted a summary judgment in May. Malouf, who owned All Smiles Dental and Orthodontics clinics throughout the Dallas area, fraudulently billed Medicaid for services provided by a different doctor, including billings he filed himself while vacationing abroad.
