(LOUISVILLE, October 13th, 2004, 12:30 p.m.) -- Some 80 federal agents have swarmed into the Louisville corporate offices of Health Essentials Solutions Inc. and two other Health-Essentials' offices in the city.
....
The probe was to seek evidence of conspiracy, false statements, false statements relating to health care matters, wire fraud, bank fraud, and a scheme to commit health care fraud.
Health-Essentials was founded in 1998 to provide nurse practitioners to care for seniors, including making house calls. It provided primary care to about 60,000 nursing home patients by July of this year.
Health Essentials was formed by Vencor co-founder Michael Barr. Barr's former partner was Bruce Lunsford. Vencor made the Fortune 500 list, but went bankrupt in 1999.
Huber cautioned that no charges, complaints or indictments have been issued against anyone at this point. Files and computers were removed from the offices.
