OP woman accused of stealing health care from military

April Greer, 28, Overland Park, Kan., has been charged in federal court with one count of health care fraud, the U.S. Attorney for Kansas reports. Greer reportedly got divorced from her husband, a Marine sergeant, but continued to submit medical expenses to the military's health-care system, the authorities allege. The feds estimate the loss at approximately $97,000.

Does this mean that the Marine can sue to get his alimony checks back, too?

As a supporter of health care reform (as defined by LIBERALS, SOCIALISTS and COMMIE-PINKOS,) I don't see anything wrong with this.

James, is there a link to a story or charging documents?

[James Hart]

Actually, my summary came directly from a short release from the U.S. Attorney's office.

Wow. $97K... That's no pap smear and cholesteral test. She may have really needed a doctor. Life or death situations make people do all kinds of stuff.

And the hubby should take part of the blame for not getting her off my medical.

But $97K? That is a LOT of medical.

Could be he was supposed to pay for her medical insurance and just did not manage to let her know he had let it slip his mind.
