1Opinion of the Court
KANNE, Circuit Judge.
A jury found Salvador Vivit, a medical doctor, guilty of sixteen counts of mail fraud based on a scheme in which he and his patients submitted false claims to insurance companies that grossly overstated the amount of care he had provided. The district court sentenced Vivit to seventy-two months imprisonment for these offenses. On appeal, Vivit does not contest the convictions, but he claims that the district court committed numerous errors in determining the appropriate sentence. Finding no errors in Vivit’s sentence, we affirm the decision of the district court.
