Ontario Provincial Police say they've charged a 53-year-old doctor after an investigation into alleged billing fraud.

Police allege Andrew Taylor, of Toronto, inappropriately submitted health bills to the Ontario Health Insurance Plan for services that weren't provided.

They also allege there were other inappropriate billings, but didn't provide details.

Taylor, an ophthalmologist who worked primarily in Niagara, appears in the Toronto Star's database of top billing doctors in Ontario. He ranked number 72 in 2011-12 for billing OHIP $1.6 million.

Taylor has been charged with one count of fraud over $5,000 and forging of documents.

His licence to practise was revoked by the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario in September 2018.

Taylor is scheduled to appear in court later this month.
