Luzerne County Judges Indicted

Two Luzerne County judges have been indicted and agreed to plead guilty to charges that they received kickbacks from a juvenile detention facility in exchange for placing juveniles in the facility.  This investigation is sure to lead to multiple civil rights claims being filed on behalf of the juveniles that were illegally detained.

Q.  If medicare paid my medical bills for the treatment I needed due to someone's negligence, does Medicare get reimbursed for their payment?

A.  Yes.  Under the Medicare Secondary Payer Statute when Medicare makes a payment for medical services received as a result of an injury caused by another party (automobile accident, medical malpractice, slip and fall etc) medicare has a right to recover the payments.  Any payments made by Medicare must be accounted for because the law makes the injured party or their attorney liable to repay from any settlement. 

Does it cost me anything to consult with you about a potential case?
