On March 23, 2026, the U.S. Department of Justice announced that Jahangeer Ali, a 34-year-old Pakistani national residing in Southern California, was charged with healthcare fraud. He allegedly ran a scheme through Oregon Clinical Laboratory in Klamath Falls, submitting over $46 million in fake claims to Medicare Advantage plans from June 2025 to January 2026 for genetic testing services that were never ordered or performed. Insurers paid out more than $28 million.
