A criminal organization has been dismantled for allegedly committing prescription fraud that has cost Greece's National Organization for Healthcare Provision (EOPYY) more than €400,000 over six years. Authorities reported that the scheme involved a network of pharmacies and two doctors who worked together to create thousands of false prescriptions, significantly defrauding the state healthcare fund.
Among those arrested is a prominent pharmacist who is also a former candidate for parliament with the Panhellenic Socialist Movement (PASOK). In total, ten individuals face charges related to this fraud, with the organization reportedly executing a well-planned operation that involved fake prescriptions leading to substantial financial gains at the expense of the EOPYY.
The investigation, carried out by the Organized Crime Unit, uncovered this extensive fraud scheme, which included over 5,400 counterfeit prescriptions. The accused individuals include both healthcare professionals and pharmacists. The judicial authorities have initiated proceedings against the members of the organization as part of ongoing efforts to combat healthcare fraud in Greece.
