Doctors from Monsey Charged by NJ Feds with Bribery, Receiving Kickbacks

July 27, 2021 by Jeff Lewis

A Pennsylvania doctor and his wife, both from Monsey, have been indicted in Federal Court in New Jersey and accused of soliciting and receiving kickbacks and bribes in exchange for ordering genetic tests. Acting U.S. Attorney of New Jersey, Rachael Honig, says 61 year-old Yitzchok “Barry” Kurtzer and his wife, 60 year-old Robin Kurtzer, reportedly got monthly cash kickbacks, up to $5,000 at a time, for genetic samples from Medicare patients and sending them for testing by clinical labs in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Two of the  Kurtzers’ employees, Amber Harris and Shanelyn Kennedy, have pleaded guilty for their roles in the kickback scheme, and two others connected to the case have pleaded guilty as well. Both Barry and Robin Kurtzer face a maximum of 10 years in prison on the top charges.
