A New Jersey and Midwest nursing home chain, and its former chief executive, must pay more than $146 million each for extensive health care fraud for engaging in widespread fraud related to Medicare and Medicaid.
Kevin Breslin, the former CEO of KBWB Operations, known as Atrium Health and Senior Living, engaged in widescale fraud related to Medicare, Medicaid, taxes and health care generally from at least Jan. 1, 2015, until September 2018, when he was fired, according to the Department of Justice (DOJ). Atrium’s 33 nursing homes in Michigan and Wisconsin were simultaneously placed into receivership, according to the Feb. 2023 grand jury indictment.
