The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention June 13 issued a Health Alert Network Health Advisory following a federal health care fraud indictment against Done Global Inc., a California-based telehealth company. The alert informs the public about potentially disrupted access to care for individuals taking prescription stimulant medications and possible increased risks for injury and overdose. The Department of Justice today announced the arrest of Done Global Founder and CEO Ruthia He and Clinical President David Brody for their alleged roles in a $100 million scheme involving the distribution of prescription stimulant medications to defraud customers. "A disruption involving this large telehealth company could impact as many as 30,000 to 50,000 patients ages 18 years and older across all 50 U.S. states," the CDC said. He and Brody provided easy access to stimulants by spending millions on deceptive advertising on social media and other exploits, according to DOJ.
