FBI: Hospital CEO arrested in health care scheme

LOS ANGELES - The top executive of a Los Angeles hospital was arrested Wednesday as federal agents raided three medical centers as part of an investigation of a scheme to recruit homeless people and bill government programs for millions of dollars in unnecessary health services, authorities said.

Search warrants were served at City of Angeles Medical Center, Los Angeles Metropolitan Medical Center and Tustin Hospital and Medical Center, the FBI said.

FBI agents arrested Rudra Sabaratnam, CEO of City of Angels hospital, and Estill Mitts, operator of a Skid Row assessment center, FBI spokeswoman Laura Eimiller said.

An indictment alleges that the men conspired to recruit homeless people as patients, then illegally charge government programs such as Medicare and Medi-Cal.

The city attorney's office said it planned to announce a lawsuit against several hospitals in connection with the alleged scheme.
