Police have caught hundreds of hospitals and patients who took more than 700 million won in insurance by performing expensive medical procedures that are not covered by real loss insurance and making false medical records.

The Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency's Criminal Task Force is investigating 366 medical staff and patients, including hospital director A, on charges of insurance fraud and violation of the medical law.

From February last year to June this year, A and others are accused of making documents and earning 700 million won worth of insurance money as if they had received manual or extracorporeal shock wave procedures after performing high-frequency procedures of 400,000 won to 800,000 won per episode, not subject to real loss insurance.

It was investigated that they also used the so-called "splitting treatment days" method of dividing treatment days according to the limit of loss insurance payments of 200,000 won to 300,000 won per day.

A was found to have attracted patients by posting promotional materials on the Internet that emphasized the experience of appearing on TV or attending a famous company president's doctor's office.
