A federal judge has ordered Philippines-based Health Visions Corp. to pay back $100 million it swindled from the U.S. military's health insurance program. Federal prosecutors say Health Visions bilked the military's Tricare program out of $99.9 million between 1998 and 2004. The program insures 9.2 million servicemen and dependents worldwide.
