CASE ANALYSIS SUMMARY: The physician, an MD, was found guilty by the Hearing Committee on January 19, 1999, of providing sub-standard care, ordering excessive tests, and filing false billings. The Review Board sustained the charges but overturned the Hearing Committee’s penalty and revoked the physician’s license on July 27, 1999. However, the New York State Board of Regents stayed the revocation and placed the physician on probation for two years. The terms of probation were later modified on July 19, 2010 (the effective date of this record), and the physician successfully completed all monitoring terms on January 4, 2013.
