Man jailed for defrauding Medicare with penis pumps

Medicare fraud

The law struck hard on a man for defrauding Medicare with penis pumps. Basically, he sent penis pumps free of charge to the Medicare patients, who never ordered the product, and then billed Medicare for $2.2 million claiming necessities ordered by the physicians.

An Illinois man, Gary Winner, 50, was sentenced to three years in prison for defrauding Medicare and seniors with erectile pumps. In addition, he will serve three years of supervised release after his prison sentence, pay a $12,500 fine and reimburse $2.2 millions to the Medicare.
