Tennessee – Philip Hall, 48, a pharmacist and owner of Hall Family Pharmacy, Inc., has been arrested and indicted on 15 federal charges related to a health care fraud scheme.
According to the indictment, between 2018 and May 2024, Hall allegedly submitted false claims to Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE, and Blue Cross Blue Shield for prescriptions that were either:
Never dispensed
Not medically necessary
Not ordered by a health care provider
Authorities further alleged that Hall’s pharmacies lacked the inventory to fill the fraudulent prescriptions and that he used individuals’ identities without consent to claim reimbursements.
In total, Hall fraudulently billed more than $6 million to federal health programs. He now faces nine counts of health care fraud and six counts of aggravated identity theft.
This case is part of an ongoing investigation into health care fraud and identity theft.
