A San Diego neurosurgeon is among four people Orange County prosecutors allege were part of an extensive workers’ compensation scheme that billed nearly $100 million in fraudulent fees.
Fish was labeled as a consultant, but prosecutors accused him of controlling the operation. Fish faces charges of conspiracy, referring clients for compensation, and insurance fraud, according to court records. He pleaded not guilty in Orange County Superior Court on Oct. 1. Dr. Vrijesh Tantuwaya, a San Diego neurosurgeon, is accused of working with the men and creating the Injured Workers Medical Group, which prosecutors said was the main client of Fish’s management company.Crime and Public Safety |Another major report recommends California charter school oversight reforms after $400 million fraud case
“Dr. Tantuwaya, a respected and highly skilled neurosurgeon, with a 22-year unblemished career, categorically denies the allegations raised by the Orange County district attorney,” said his lawyer, Scott Simmons, in a statement.
