A 48-year-old doctor from Midland has been indicted by a federal grand jury in Bay City for failure to turn himself in to serve a 20-month prison sentence. Dr. Hamid Taaid was sentenced in March for defrauding Medicare and Blue Cross/Blue Shield of Michigan of more than $70,000.

He was ordered to surrender to a correctional facility in Youngstown Ohio no later than July 8th, but failed to do so. His whereabouts are unknown.
