What are some common examples of healthcare fraud?

A: There can be many types of healthcare fraud committed against the government. Some of the more common schemes involve billing Medicare or Medicaid for medical services that were not necessary or not performed at all. Also, there are many types of up-coding or un-bundling schemes. Other ways the government is cheated include kickbacks and self-referrals, falsely certifying and giving false information, fraudulent cost reports and grant or research fraud.
