Two Georgia elections workers and other Middle Georgia women have been charged for their role in a healthcare fraud scheme.
Tarshea Fudge-Riley, elections supervisor for Macon County and Lamonica Lakes, election clerk and deputy election registrar allegedly participated in a years-long scheme to commit healthcare fraud.
The women allegedly submitted fraudulent insurance claims for mental health therapy sessions that never even happened.
“Federal prosecutors believe Fudge-Riley, who is the Chief Macon County BOE Supervisor, and Lakes, an elections clerk at the Macon County BOE, as well as Childs, were paid by James Ellis to knowingly create fake therapy session notes that were submitted to health insurance providers for “pre-payment review,”” WGXA reported.
Their election-work activities should be investigated as well….
Most likely broke some laws there too!
