CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — A New Hampshire woman has been accused of submitting Medicaid claims for mileage reimbursement in connection with medical appointments that didn’t happen.
The Ossipee woman was arrested Tuesday and charged with theft by deception, false claims and presenting false records, the attorney general’s office said in a news release. The charges allege that she presented the mileage claims from August 2019 to February 2020 for travel to medical appointments in Concord that didn’t exist.
The charges allege that the woman received over $1,500 in Medicaid funds.
The woman is scheduled to be arraigned on Jan. 6, 2022. It wasn’t immediately known if she had a lawyer, and a phone number could not be found for her.
