Fraudulent Therapist Defrauded Medicaid

A Minnesota woman, 55, faces 12 felonies for posing as a licensed therapist for two and a half years, billing Medicaid over $156,000 using fake credentials and stolen identities. She allegedly created fake degrees, used other therapists’ names and licenses to land jobs, and even opened her own counseling center—all while serving 169 clients. The fraud was exposed when UCare spotted inconsistencies, revealing her deception and fraudulent Capella University credentials. This brazen scheme exposes systemic vulnerabilities in how public funds are accessed and billed. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
