In 2017, Yogesh Pancholi agreed to a five-year voluntary exclusion from participating in Medicare and Medicaid programs after being accused of paying kickbacks to doctors for patient referrals in a civil False Claims Act suit. Within a year, Pancholi secretly purchased a home-health-care company, Shring Home Health Care, Inc., using a false identity and forged ownership documents. Between November and December 2018, Shring submitted nearly 900 fraudulent payment requests to Medicare totaling more than $2.7 million. Pancholi pocketed the proceeds and transferred them to India, where much of the money remains unrecovered. He was later charged with healthcare fraud, money laundering, witness tampering, and aggravated identity theft.

In 2019, Theory Wellness, an operator of marijuana dispensaries, contracted with Sean O’Donovan, a local Massachusetts attorney, to provide government-relations assistance in support of their endeavor to receive approval from the city of Medford, MA, to sell marijuana. O’Donovan attempted to influence  Medford’s chief of police through his brother to procure the approval by promising him some of the business's future proceeds but was eventually caught. He was found guilty of two counts of honest-services wire fraud and one count of federal program bribery.
