Last month, the U.S. Department of Justice arrested Michael J. Ligotti, D.O., of Delray Beach, Florida, for billing Medicare and private insurance companies for $681 million in unnecessary urine tests. Ligotti owned and operated Whole Health, a private clinic, which offered addiction and other treatment programs, and he also was the “medical director” of more than 50 addiction treatment programs and sober homes.
