Verbal was ordered to pay restitution of $4.1 million for the Internal Revenue Service and $2.4 million to the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services. He was also sentenced to three years of supervised release following the prison term.
Fro 2005 through at least 2012, Verbal operated Nothing But Taxes, a franchised operation with 10 branches in North Carolina. He personally prepared phony income tax returns and taught his employees to do the same.
The healthcare fraud charges stemmed from his owning and operating Infinite Wellness Concepts, a Medicaid behavioral health provider in Burlington, Durham and Greensboro, N.C. Verbal bilked Medicaid for at least $1 million by activities such as changing diagnosis codes to ones that commanded a higher reimbursement; inflating the number of clients treated in group therapy; and billing for services not given and forging notes to support the bills
