Kansas women admit Medicaid fraud
Compliance Monitor, May 30, 2012
Two Kansas women pleaded guilty to defrauding the Kansas Medicaid agency and will pay $13,000 in total restitution, according to a press release from the Kansas Attorney General’s office.
Teresa Corber, 39, and Molly Musgrove, 58, both of Independence, pled guilty to one count of unlawful acts relating to the Medicaid program, one count of making a false claim to the Medicaid program, and one count of theft.
Corber submitted claims as a personal care attendant for Medicaid beneficiaries for services she never provided. Musgrove, a Medicaid beneficiary, filed paperwork to receive reimbursement for bathroom remodeling that never occurred.
