Assisted a doctor in a health care fraud case where the prosecution alleged improper Medicare billing without patient examinations. The doctor was a victim of a computer virus that encrypted most patient files. A forensic analysis of the computer uncovered references to patient records and successfully recovered examination notes. As a result, the charges against the doctor were dropped.

The analysis revealed that the employee had copied the client’s proprietary data, including several formula mixing instructions, onto an external hard drive, which remained in the employee’s possession after their departure.
