Florida doctor admits taking kickbacks from Insys, others
Dr. Michael Frey, 46, pleaded guilty on Monday in federal court in Fort Myers, Florida, to conspiring to receive kickbacks from a medical equipment provider and a pharmacy sales representative. As part of a plea agreement, he also admitted that Chandler, Arizona-based Insys paid him kickbacks in the form of fees to participate in largely bogus speaker event programs so that he would prescribe its opioid product Subsys, prosecutors said.
