Two Former Lab Employees Admit Roles In Multimillion-Dollar Cash-For-Referral Scheme

Two former sales representatives of Biodiagnostic Laboratory Services LLC admitted Thursday, May 2, to conspiring to bribe doctors to refer patient blood samples to BLS, U.S. Attorney Paul J. Fishman announced this week.

The case states that from 2006 to 2009, the men would bribe doctors thousands to dollars to refer patients to give blood samples at their Parsippany-based medical testing facility. They then charged Medicare and Blue Cross millions for the testing and used sham agreements to conceal their bribes payments.

Sales representatives Peter Breihof, 42, of Nutley, N.J., and William Dailey, 41, of Wall, N.J., both pleaded guilty before U.S. District Judge Stanley R. Chesler to conspiracy to violate the Anti-Kickback Statute and the Federal Travel Act.
