A local substance abuse counseling and treatment provider is being sued by the federal government and the state of Rhode Island, which allege that the company billed Medicaid for millions of dollars for services that it failed to provide to patients.
The civil lawsuit, which is against Journey to Hope, Health and Healing and its then-CEO Kenneth L. Richardson Jr., claims the provider"knowingly and routinely failed to provide to their patients who needed these services, and subsequently falsified records in order to make it appear that required services were being provided," according to a news release from the U.S. Attorney's Office Rhode Island District.
The complaint also alleged that management instructed workers to falsify records ahead of reviews by officials and auditors, to make it look like the missing services were delivered.Sign up for NECN newsletters. The feds, as well as state authorities, claimed that over half of the amount claimed by Journey during the time period in question was false, and the government is seeking to recover up to three times the amount paid.
