United States Tenth Circuit

Convictions and sentence for fifty-two counts of healthcare fraud and one count of obstruction of justice are affirmed where: 1) sufficient evidence supported the convictions; 2) the court did not err in declining to dismiss the health care fraud charges as unconstitutionally vague; and 3) the sentence was neither procedurally nor substantively unreasonable.
