A 10-count indictment, unsealed on Thursday in U.S. District Court, charges two executives of a District-based healthcare provider and one of their Community Support Workers in connection with a scheme to bill D.C. Medicaid for mental health services for juveniles that were never provided or were invoiced at grossly inflated rates, causing a loss to the District of Columbia’s Medicaid program that exceeded millions of dollars.According to the indictment, from January 2022 through February 2025, Quality Healthcare Services billed D.C.
Medicaid approximately $14 million for Mental Health Rehabilitation Services. Two of the defendants are executives of Quality Healthcare Services, LLC, a Washington, D.C.-based provider of mental health rehabilitative services to youth and adolescent beneficiaries from low-income families.
A third defendant is a community support worker at Quality Healthcare Services.
