“These convictions show that the paying of illegal bribes and treating patients as commodities for the purpose of lining conspirator's pockets will not be tolerated,” FBI Special Agent in Charge Eric S. Birnbaum said in a statement. “The FBI will continue to use our investigative expertise to dismantle sophisticated criminal conspiracies at the highest levels. This case exemplifies that the FBI and our law enforcement partners are committed to rooting out corruption in our health care system.”

A sentencing hearing will be held for Dr. Grusd and his corporations on March 12, 2018.
