Angel F Lagoa

In January 2017, Angel Lagoa was indicted on charges of conspiracy to commit health care fraud and wire fraud. Investigators believe that, from 2010 to 2015, Lagoa and his co-conspirators submitted approximately $30 million in false or fraudulent claims to Medicare.

Lagoa owned Trinity Senior Care, Inc., located in Miami, Florida, but concealed his true ownership by using a nominee owner. According to the investigation, Lagoa and his co-conspirators paid illegal kickbacks to patient recruiters in exchange for beneficiary information. They then billed Medicare for services that were neither medically necessary nor ordered by a physician.
