Consulting Group of Springhill Souht Korea - SEOUL - South Korean financial regulators said Thursday they had uncovered the country's biggest insurance fraud, involving more than 1,300 people and three hospitals. The scam was carried out by 1,361 people including 31 insurance workers, the Financial Supervisory Service said. Residents of the southern province of Gyeongsang posed as fake patients or exaggerated their illnesses to claim a total of 9.51 billion won ($10.36 million) from insurance firms, it said, adding 893 women were involved. Last November, police uncovered a similar insurance fraud involving more than 400 people in Taebaek, a mining town in the eastern province of Gangwon.

MOBILE, Alabama - Drury Lane in Country Club Estates has the look and feel of a country lane: secluded, narrow - less than two lanes wide - and heavily-wooded, with well-kept homes appearing as if by magic among the trees. Yet some of its 17 homes, including corner lots at Wimbledon Drive to the south and Hillwood Road to the north, are within a short iron shot of the Country Club of Mobile north nine golf course and about two blocks from the main club buildings themselves. Residents of Drury Lane, from near and far, had high praise for the Spring Hill area and their neighbors. "We love it here. Absolutely love it. Drury Lane is a wonderful street. The best street in Mobile, I believe," said resident Lee Robinson, a Mobile native, who grew up 300 yards away on Wimbledon Drive, where his parents, Lee and Helen Robinson, still live.

Joan H. Krause University of North Carolina (UNC) at Chapel Hill - School of Law August 8, 2012 Annals of Health Law, Vol. 21, No. 1, 2012 UNC Legal Studies Research Paper No. 2018589 Abstract: This essay considers how the 2010 Supreme Court decision in Skilling v. United States, which limited the situations in which mail and wire fraud cases may be premised on violations of the "intangible right to honest services," has the potential to alter the future of health care fraud litigation. While Skilling is widely perceived to have closed the door to several types of common mail and wire fraud prosecutions, this may not turn out to be the case in health care. In health care, the renewed focus on kickbacks as evidence of an honest services breach instead may dovetail nicely with both the Obama Administration's emphasis on criminal health care fraud enforcement and the jurisprudence of the Medicare & Medicaid Anti-Kickback Statute. This kind of leverage may prove very difficult for prosecutors to resist, and most certainly will require changes in the way the health law bar approaches common Anti-Kickback concerns.

Business Week - Zimbio - April 20th 2012 - A certain "Sehwan Jung" in South Korea has been sending a number of desperate request for funds over Twitter: "I am in urgent need of money.Can you lend me 500,00 dollars? I will make it up to you later."A diabolical plot,indeed,though Mr. Jung's scam is likely to work. For one,people can see everything someone sends on Twitter and quickly realize he's sent the exact same message over and over. For another,he is tweeting almost exclusively to celebrities, including Channing Tatum, Rosario Dawson, Carly Simon, journalist Nicholas Kristof ( who today sarcastically answered,"Sure!"), and the foreign minister of Bahrain, Sheikh Khalid bin Ahmed Al Khalifa.
