DALLAS — Andrew Joseph Baumiller, 38, of Dallas, Texas, pleaded guilty Wednesday before U.S. Magistrate Judge David L. Horan to one count of conspiracy to commit health care fraud stemming from a scheme to defraud TRICARE, the health insurance program for members of the military and their families. The announcement was made Wednesday by U.S. Attorney John Parker of the Northern District of Texas.
Baumiller faces a maximum statutory penalty of 10 years in federal prison, a $250,000 fine, and will be ordered to pay restitution. Baumiller will remain in custody pending sentencing, which is scheduled before Chief U.S. District Judge Barbara M.G. Lynn in February, 2018.
