Dentist Who Extracted Tooth On Hoverboard Sentenced To 12 Years In Prison

I imagine the majority of his sentence comes from Medicaid fraud and the removing people's teeth without consent.

exactly lol

Yea. he’a getting time for Medicaid fraud. He probably has a lot of civil suits for malpractice.

Cranford persuaded his office manager to offer intravenous sedation to Medicaid patients as an alternative to less costly anesthesia. The cost of IV sedation generally is not included in a patient’s $1,150 annual limit for non-emergency dental procedures.

The practice became lucrative for Lookhart, prosecutors said, and his practice in 2016 accounted for 31% of all Medicaid payments for IV sedation.

Lockhart also schemed to cut out his partners by billing Medicaid under a different provider identification and having payments sent directly to his home, prosecutors said.

Since Lookhart obtained an IV sedation license in 2015, prosecutors said, Medicaid paid him about $1.9 million for IV sedation services.

Yeah he’s not doing time for that hoverboard, it’s that Medicaid fraud that’s got him doing a decade in prison. If it was just about the hoverboard he probably would’ve got a slap on the wrist
