Kimble had <\/span> in 2019 to multiple federal offenses, including conspiracy to defraud the United States, health care fraud, wire fraud, mail fraud, making false claims, and offering kickbacks and bribes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Prosecutors said Kimble <\/span>operated<\/span> a health care fraud scheme that generated more than $1.2 billion in Medicare charges and affected thousands of beneficiaries, many of them elderly. Authorities said the operation used call centers to steer patients toward medically unnecessary orthopedic braces.<\/span><\/p>\n

The case puts a face on the kinds of large-scale fraud federal officials say they are trying to root out. Authorities say elderly beneficiaries were pushed toward unnecessary medical equipment, taxpayers were left with more than a billion dollars in charges, and Kimble fled before he could be sentenced.<\/span><\/p>\n

Patel said the FBI remains committed to carrying out President Donald Trump\u2019s directive to crack down on fraud and protect taxpayer dollars.<\/span><\/p>\n

Kimble\u2019s arrest comes after federal officials announced the apprehension of <\/span>, 47, who was wanted on charges of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, wire fraud, and money laundering. Ereg was the first person on the list to be taken into custody.<\/span><\/p>\n

Vice President JD Vance said Kimble\u2019s capture was tied directly to the creation of the Most Wanted Fraudsters list.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOur message is simple,\u201d Vance wrote on X. \u201cIf you defraud the American people, we will find you and we will bring you to justice.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cKimble preyed on the elderly for years, costing taxpayers over a billion dollars,\u201d Vance continued. \u201cThe FBI catching Kimble is a direct result of the task force\u2019s partnership with the FBI to create the Most Wanted Fraudsters list.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Vance said authorities had been unable to capture Kimble for months, but that the Philippine government helped locate him after the Justice Department published its list.<\/span><\/p>\n

The arrest comes months after the Justice Department announced the creation of a National Fraud Enforcement Division to support President Trump\u2019s Task Force to Eliminate Fraud, led by Vance. The task force was launched to investigate and recover fraudulent spending in programs such as Medicare and Medicaid.<\/span><\/p>\n

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said Kimble fled to the Philippines rather than face accountability in the United States.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cFleeing the United States does not mean you can flee justice,\u201d Blanche wrote on X.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cInstead of facing accountability for his $1.2 billion Medicare fraud crimes in the United States, Kimble fled to the Philippines hoping to escape justice,\u201d Blanche continued. \u201cThat plan failed.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Blanche said the FBI has now apprehended two fraudsters from its recently unveiled list in just two weeks, adding that there are \u201cmore to come.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
