In 1999, after four years of litigation with an insurance company, federal charges were filed against Mckay and three clinic managers at GMC and WellNet LLC. By the end of 2000 all six clinics were shut down and he had filed for corporate and personal bankruptcy. Mckay agreed to the government's plea bargain agreement and served 13 months of a 35 month sentence at the Sheridan Federal Prison Camp in Sheridan, Oregon. He began his sentence on Feb. 1, 2001.[3] Mckay is best known for his work as a public speaker[4][5] and his book Wellness at Warp Speed that was written about his own personal health episodes and challenges with his heart, and his experience of going to prison.[6] Health issues and deathMckay experienced a myocarditis in 1989, and had valve replacement surgery in 2003.
