A Manhattan pharmacy owner is facing grand larceny charges after she
allegedly stole millions from Medicaid.
49-year-old Hin Wong operates the NY Pharmacy on Walker Street near
Baxter in Chinatown.
Prosecutors say she billed Medicaid over $15 million for
medications, but never purchased as much as she claimed.
They say she had been running her scheme since January of 2014, and
spent the money on travel and expensive furniture.
The Attorney General has also sued her for $11 million in damages.
