On July 10, 2025, Magaly Travieso and Yudorki Ramirez, both from Miami, were sentenced to nine and three years in prison respectively for their roles in health care fraud and money laundering conspiracies. Travieso, a registered nurse and owner of ProMed Healthcare L.L.C., was involved in submitting over $20 million in fraudulent insurance claims from March 2019 to January 2023. These claims led to ProMed receiving more than $10 million.
Travieso's clinic falsely claimed to provide medical services such as braces, therapy, and rehabilitation to beneficiaries with various insurance plans. She paid illegal kickbacks and fabricated medical records to justify these claims. The records contained copied progress notes with repeated stock quotes across different patients.
Proceeds from the fraud were used by Travieso and Ramirez for personal purchases including a Range Rover and residences in Miami. Law enforcement seized assets including the vehicle and over $4 million from their bank accounts in June 2024. Since then, an additional $2 million has been recovered, with further restitution ordered by the court.
The announcement was made by U.S. Attorney Hayden P. O’Byrne along with other officials from federal agencies involved in the investigation. The case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Joseph Egozi with asset forfeiture handled by Assistant U.S. Attorney Joshua Paster.
