Dallas, Texas (KXAS) -- A Dallas, Texas doctor and several others were arrested Tuesday in the biggest Medicare and Medicaid fraud case in U.S. history.

One of the ways the group allegedly bilked the system was signing up people who would never meet the requirements for home health care benefits.

Dr. Roy would allegedly certify them anyway, registering 11,000 people over five years for health care
