GP was ‘accidentally entangled’ in criminal insurance scam
The GP will be allowed to return to practice despite two convictions on fraud offences
A GP who falsified patients’ medical records as part of an insurance scam was inadvertently drawn into the machinations of a criminal syndicate, a tribunal says.
According to the doctor, back in 2016 he was introduced to an “enabler” — a business development manager for the physiotherapy clinic next to his practice in southwest Sydney.
