Pierre Charles Moise, age 57, of Apopka, Florida, pleaded guilty on December 10, 2024, to concealing from insurance companies the fact that he paid patients to attend his chiropractic clinic. According to court documents, Moise owned and operated the Wellness Health Center (“WHC”), a chiropractic clinic, in Milford, Delaware. Between at least January 2019 and March 2022, Moise, himself and through others, paid patients who had been in recent car accidents to attend treatment sessions at the WHC irrespective of whether that treatment was needed. At his instruction, WHC employees then submitted claims for reimbursement to insurance companies, who, under Delaware’s no-fault Personal Injury Protection (“PIP”) law, were obligated to pay WHC for that treatment. Moise and WHC received over $630,000 from insurance companies as a result of that fraud scheme. Moise pleaded guilty to making a false statement relating to healthcare matters and faces a maximum penalty of five years in prison. A federal district court judge will determine any sentence after taking into account the US Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors.
