HABROON HABIB, a 29-year-old citizen of Pakistan and lawful permanent resident of the U.S. residing in Middletown, Connecticut, has been charged in a health care fraud scheme involving durable medical equipment, or DME.
According to court documents and statements made in court, the Medicare Advantage program, commonly known as Medicare Part C, offers Medicare beneficiaries managed care options by allowing them to enroll in private health care plans rather than having their care covered through Medicare’s traditional fee-for-service program, commonly known as Medicare Part B.
The federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services contracts with private health insurers to administer the Medicare Advantage program.
Habib and Around the World Solutions LLC, a company he formed in January 2025, and others, allegedly engaged in a health care fraud scheme to defraud the Medicare Advantage program through the submission of fraudulent claims for DME, specifically orthotics, that were never provided to patients.
Between February and June 2025, Around the World Solutions, which had a business address at a shared office space location in Middletown, billed various Medicare Advantage plan sponsors for orthotics purportedly provided to more than 400 Medicare beneficiaries around the U.S., none of whom resided in Connecticut.
The beneficiaries did not ask for, or receive, the orthotics.
It is further alleged that Habib engaged in unlawful financial transactions involving proceeds of the scheme.
