Attorney General Maura Healey announced a $17 million dollar fine related to a Framingham clinic on Monday.
Two Florida companies have been ordered to pay $17 million for deceptively marketing and billing for medications and services at an unlicensed medical clinic in Framingham, Attorney General Maura Healey announced Monday.
The judgment, ordered by the Suffolk Superior Court, permanently prohibits Florida Men’s Medical Clinic, LLC (FMMC) and Men’s Medical Clinic, LLC (MMC) from operating unlicensed medical clinics in Massachusetts or deceptively marketing any medication or medical service relating to the treatment of erectile dysfunction in the state. The judgment also orders restitution to consumers, according to Healey’s office.
According to the complaint filed in July 2015 in Suffolk Superior Court, the defendants -- FMMC, MMC, Kevin Hornsby, and Heidi Hornsby -- deceptively marketed medications and services relating to the treatment of erectile dysfunction at an unlicensed medical clinic in Framingham that went by the names Massachusetts Men’s Medical Clinic, Massachusetts Men’s Medical and Men’s Medical Clinic.
According to Healey’s office, more than 4,000 consumers went to the unlicensed facility.
The AG’s Office’s lawsuit against Hornsby and Hornsby is ongoing.
