PHILADELPHIA – The grimy underbelly of healthcare fraud was exposed as Favorite Home Care, LLC, and its key figures, including owners Larry Sakson and Olena Radionovsky, were indicted for a staggering 21 counts of health care fraud. The Saksons and Marina Sakson, alongside Michael Radionovsky, stand accused of colluding to bilk Medicaid and a Medicaid Managed Care Organization out of millions by falsely billing for home health services that were never rendered.
The indictment alleges each defendant personally made false claims, attesting they provided in-home care when they were actually absent. Favorite Home Care, LLC then submitted these fraudulent claims, pocketing payments meant for real care. The Saksons and Radionovsky are not alone; Marina Sakson and Michael Radionovsky, as employees and managers of the company, are also implicated.
This sordid scheme was uncovered by a joint investigation led by the FBI and U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General. Assistant United States Attorney Elizabeth Abrams is now tasked with pursuing this case against the accused.
Despite the serious charges, every defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty in court. The posting of this press release was delayed due to a federal government shutdown from October 1, 2025, to November 12, 2025.
For those who trust the healthcare system, this case serves as a stark reminder of the corruption that can lurk beneath the surface, threatening the integrity of essential services. As the investigation unfolds, Grimy Times will continue to bring you updates on this despicable fraud ring.
Favorite Home Care’s collapse into a web of deceit underscores the need for strict oversight and accountability in the healthcare industry. The justice system now awaits its chance to mete out justice for those who betrayed their responsibility to provide care.
