According to previous reports, Hanoi police have just uncovered an extremely sophisticated medical fraud ring, taking advantage of patients' anxiety. A group of "brokers" impersonated hospital security guards, took patients to the "ghost" clinic of a "fake doctor", and stole a total of 123 million VND from 27 victims.
According to the investigation, around March 2024, Nguyen Thi Thu Huong (born in 1980; permanent residence in Bach Mai, Hanoi) opened Thu Huong Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinic at 44 Tho Nhuom, Cua Nam Ward, Hanoi City to examine and treat obstetrics and gynecology diseases and provide ultrasound.
To serve the clinic's operations, Huong hired doctors to examine and treat patients and colluded with Le Cong Ngoi (born in 1984; permanent resident of Vinh Hung ward, Hanoi), Nguyen Van Tam (born in 1983; permanent resident of Tran Phu commune, Hanoi) - two subjects who acted as "brokers" at the gate of the Central Maternity Hospital and K Hospital to bring customers to Huong's clinic.
When Ngoi and Tam brought customers to the clinic, Huong paid Ngoi and Tam 10% of the total amount that the patients had to pay to the clinic. By July 2, 2025, it was determined that 27 people had come to Huong's clinic for medical examination, the total amount of money Huong collected from the patients was 123 million VND.
Through verification, Nguyen Thi Thu Huong only studied in the Intermediate Medical Nursing class, is not a doctor, does not have a practice certificate, has not received any training or education related to medical examination, treatment, testing and prescribing, but Huong still directly examined, tested and prescribed medicine for patients.
Based on the investigation documents, the City Police Investigation Agency has detained the above 3 subjects to investigate their violations of regulations on medical examination, treatment, production, preparation, dispensing, and sale of drugs or other medical services.
