COLUMBIA, SC (WOLO)– According to United States Attorney Peter M. McCoy Jr., a Georgia man has been sentenced to 6.5 years in federal prison for defrauding Medicaid programs in the Carolinas. Officials say 37-year-old Markuetric Stringfellow was a franchise owner of Wrights Care Services LLC, a South Carolina Medicaid rehabilitative behavioral health services which is headquartered in Columbia with several franchise locations throughout the state.
In April 2014, authorities say Wrights Care became a Medicaid program provider in the state, which allowed the group to submit claims for behavioral mentoring services to be reimbursed by Medicaid. Officials say Stringfellow and his co-conspirators submitted claims for services either not provided, partially provided or that did not qualify for reimbursement. Additionally, investigators say they group submitted falsified patient billing records and medical notes.
