Local Health Care Provider, Jorge Roig of Weirton agrees to Civil Settlement as part of Health Care Fraud

WHEELING, WEST VIRGINIA – Today, United States Attorney Matthew L. Harvey announced civil settlements with two defendants in connection with alleged schemes to defraud Medicare and Medicaid. The civil settlements are part of the Department of Justice’s 2026 National Health Care Fraud Takedown. The settlements stem from each defendant’s respective use of pre-signed, invalid prescriptions that were issued outside the usual course of his professional practice to his patients in West Virginia while he was traveling and not in close proximity to his office in West Virginia.
