Biden grants clemency to Mississippi doctor sentenced to 20 years for chemotherapy fraud
SUMMARY: Former Mississippi oncologist Dr. Meera Sachdeva, sentenced to 20 years for a chemotherapy fraud scheme, received clemency from President Joe Biden on December 12. Sachdeva, who pleaded guilty in 2012, defrauded Medicare and Medicaid by billing for unadministered chemotherapy dosages and using expired treatments, leading to patient infections. Initially sentenced to prison and fined, Sachdeva sought compassionate relief in 2020 due to health concerns amid the COVID-19 pandemic, but her requests were denied. Under the Biden Administration’s clemency criteria, she was granted relief after serving part of her sentence, though it’s unclear how much longer she will remain incarcerated.
