Safeway Medical Fraud Exposed
from Santa Fe News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Federal and New Mexico authorities are cracking down hard on Safeway Medical Transportation, accusing it of bilking the state for over $2 million on phantom rides and drivers taking personal appointments. This is part of a massive federal “Health Care Fraud Takedown” that’s already ensnared 450 people—including 90 doctors—for scams totaling over $6.5 billion, causing real harm and even death to patients. Among those caught: 60-year-old former pharmacist August Daniel Martin, charged with forging prescriptions to illegally obtain controlled substances, caught on video altering scripts with white-out. His license was suspended for skipping a wellness program, and he’s set for court July 17th. Officials are sending a clear message: public healthcare funds won’t be exploited, and fraudsters will face serious consequences.
