Cemhan “Jimmy” Biricik Arrested Following FBI Raid In Summer, 2025. DOJ Alleges Massive Medicare Fraud.

BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2026 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — Federal prosecutors have expanded the fraud case against Boca Bridges resident Cemhan “Jimmy” Biricik, filing a First Superseding Indictment that raises the total alleged fraud to roughly $566 million. The new filing obtained by BocaNewsNow.com, set in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, charges Biricik with conspiracy to commit health care fraud, dozens of individual health care fraud counts, and conspiracy to launder monetary instruments.

Prosecutors allege Biricik organized and ran Fast Lab Technologies, LLC, a Wyoming-registered company he controlled as sole member and chief executive, which purported to offer free at-home COVID-19 testing. According to the indictment, Biricik used the company to solicit patients’ insurance information through a website, fastlabtech.com, in exchange for “no cost” test kits, then submitted or caused the submission of claims to Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE, the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program and private insurers for tests that were never performed or not performed as represented.

The indictment alleges Biricik billed insurers as though laboratory staff had directly observed rapid antigen tests or collected and analyzed saliva samples in a lab, even in cases where test kits were mailed to patients but left unopened and never returned. Prosecutors say Biricik also caused patients’ insurance to be repeatedly billed for additional tests at regular intervals without those patients’ knowledge or consent. The indictment breaks down the alleged fraud by payer: approximately $180 million billed to Medicare Part B, $220 million to Medicare Part C, $101 million to private insurers, $55 million to Medicaid, $8 million to TRICARE and $2 million to FEHBP plans.

Separately, U.S. District Judge Judith E. Levy on May 22 denied a “letter motion” filed by Biricik seeking removal of the GPS tether imposed as a condition of his pretrial release, following opposition from prosecutors. Biricik has remained under court-ordered electronic monitoring since his arrest.

BocaNewsNow.com was first to report on the FBI’s raid of Biricik’s Boca Bridges home and, in December, on the federal government’s move to seize his Boca Raton residence, a Lamborghini Urus, a Bentley Bentayga, a private aircraft, jewelry, designer handbags and nearly $90,000 held across multiple bank accounts. The superseding indictment references that same property list and adds that, upon conviction, Biricik could be ordered to pay a money judgment equal to the total proceeds of the scheme.
