Connecticut Acupuncturist Avoids Jail Time for Medicaid Fraud: A Summary
Julian Cano, a 43-year-old acupuncturist from Milford, Connecticut, was sentenced to a fully suspended three-year prison term and five years of conditional discharge for defrauding Medicaid out of over $120,000. Cano pleaded no contest to health insurance fraud in Meriden Superior Court after submitting false claims and billing for more expensive treatments than what patients received. The judges decision sends a clear message to healthcare fraudsters, as Cano is now banned from providing services under Medicaid and federal health programs, and has already paid full restitution.
