 Dr. Ronald David Dean entered into a plea deal with federal prosecutors in which he agreed to help the government continue its investigation, and he will pay back around $780,000 in restitution to Medicare. According to court documents, Dean would sign prescriptions and other documents for medical devices and COVID tests for people who did not need them. Then two people running telemedicine companies in Florida would bill the federal government, and Dean would receive kickbacks as part of the scheme.
