New information was revealed in the central news bulletin of SKAI about the doctor’s circuit with fake prescriptions.

In particular, according to a SKAI report, a pathologist from Cyprus, who was assigned to a regional clinic and Health Center of Boeotia, an obstetrician-gynecologist at a Municipal Clinic in Athens, his wife, who was assigned to a state hospital in Athens and a dentist was among the 16 defendants, who allegedly pulled the strings in the fraud ring at the expense of EOPYY.

In the first criminal organization, an important role was played by the pathologist’s assistant, the 57-year-old called “Michel”, who found him AMKA, foreigners who were abroad, in prisons or in structures, to whom he illegally prescribed.

The second criminal organization was identifying uninsured motorists. The circuit prescribed narcotic medicinal preparations, antipsychotic-psychotropic substances, vitamins, drugs in short supply, such as a well-known drug that is given to diabetics, but has a parallel effect on weight loss.

One of the members of the ring had prescribed a psychotropic medication, 3,679 times with a total cost to the operator of approximately 600,000 euros. He did not hesitate to prescribe it 186 times to his mother, father, wife, son and daughter.

All 16 arrested doctors, pharmacy owners and employees face eight felonies and two misdemeanors and are expected to plead Wednesday and Thursday.
