The move came after Dr. Chin complied with scheduled payments required over a five-year contingency period, the release said. The charges stemmed from consulting fees. All surgeon payments were disclosed annually to CMS, which dispelled money laundering allegations.

Dr. Chin didn’t comment on the dismissal in the news release. He is the former CEO of SpineFrontier.
