The former co-owner and board chairman of City of Angels Medical Center pleaded guilty Tuesday in U.S. District Court to paying illegal kickbacks in a scheme to defraud Medicare and Medi-Cal.
Robert Bourseau, 74, is the fourth person to plead guilty in a widespread plan to exploit those living on the streets for their medical benefits. The charges carry a maximum penalty of 10 years in federal prison.
Bourseau has agreed to pay more than $4.1 million to Medicare and Medi-Cal.
