Because the doctors were likely getting kickback payments.

Yeah, I saw something about kickbacks in a non-Advocate article I found. Seems to me, if all this guy got to do was fix up his truck and his pool, he must have spent an awful lot on those kickbacks.

Maybe he's cooperating with the feds, and they plan to charge the doctors who really made this scheme possible / collected the profits.
