WHEELING (AP) - A high-living Parkersburg doctor faces up to 15 years in prison for health care fraud and tax evasion.
Sixty-one-year-old
Barton Joseph Adams entered guilty pleas to the charges this month
before a federal judge in Wheeling. He operated a pain management clinic
in Vienna.
According to the government, Adams and his wife evaded taxes and made
bogus claims for health care payments totaling nearly $4 million. The
two hid the money in foreign accounts and lived a lavish lifestyle of
travel and high-end hotels.
As part of a plea agreement, Adams has agreed to the forfeiture of $3.7 million.
Adams'
wife, Josephine Adams, was convicted one year ago of 16 felony counts.
She faces sentences ranging from 5 to 20 years on each count.
