WASHINGTON D.C. – Two WMATA train operators have been arrested and charged in a $360,000 health care fraud scheme involving fake claims and kickbacks.
According to the indictment, James Johnson and Emily Davis used their positions as train operators to submit false claims to a health insurance company for medical services that were never provided.
The indictment alleges that Johnson and Davis received kickbacks from a medical provider in exchange for submitting the false claims. The scheme is believed to have occurred between January 2022 and August 2023.
The defendants were arrested on April 10, 2024 and are scheduled to appear in court on April 17, 2024. The charges include conspiracy to commit health care fraud, health care fraud, and conspiracy to pay and receive kickbacks.
The case is being investigated by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Inspector General, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The charges are being prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia.
