Investigation Details
On April 4, 2013, Keilan Maria Fife was sentenced to two-and-a-half years of incarceration and ordered to pay $845,000 in restitution after pleading guilty to charges of health care fraud.
Fife was arrested along with her husband, captured Most Wanted fugitive Carlos Rodriguez, on November 27, 2012, after they arrived at Miami International Airport.
Fife was indicted on charges of health care fraud in June 2012.
Fife was the owner and operator of Millennium Rx, Inc. (Millennium), a Miami based pharmacy. She is listed as the sole officer, director and registered agent of Millennium.
Fife, through Millennium, allegedly submitted prescriptions to Medicare that were never provided to Medicare patients. The patients were paid kickbacks to use their Medicare numbers.
Millennium was paid approximately $1.3 million from Medicare.
Fife used the monies she received from these fraudulent claims for her own personal use and to further the health care fraud.
