Shane Matthews has released a statement after he received a three-month prison sentence for his involvement in a $20 million healthcare fraud conspiracy.

On Monday, GatorSports.com’s Kevin Brockway reported the terms of the plea agreement for the former Gators quarterback, who played for Florida from 1990-92 and became involved with former Gators linebacker Monty Grow in the scheme. A jury unanimously convicted Grow on Monday of a healthcare fraud conspiracy for bilking $20 million from the TRICARE program for military members, veterans and their families, per a story from Jay Weaver of The Miami Herald. Grow was also convicted of conspiring to receive and pay kickbacks for referring hundreds of military beneficiaries to the Pompano Beach-based pharmacy, Patient Care America, as well as of money laundering.

Per Brockway, Matthews has until June to start the prison sentence, and the former player must pay $439,000 in restitution. Weaver reported that Grow was accused in a 49-count indictment of hiring an independent marketing team that included Matthews in the plan to fleece the TRICARE program. Matthews was paid $440,000 for “lining up sales representatives who then landed TRICARE patients for the pharmacy,” according to Weaver. Matthews was sentenced last week.

TriCare is the military health insurance. Vets have a choice to sign up with them after they get out, but it's pretty expensive.
