Dr. Makki admittedly filed false claims to Medicare from July 2004 to Sept. 2009, which brought him an extra $113,777. Moreover, he falsely filled out an immigration form for a patient so that the patient would not need to meet requirements for naturalization. In 2003, he failed to include cash receipts on his federal income tax return.
