- Pending Government Action:Government Action: BBB reports on known government actions involving business’ marketplace conduct:State of Florida v Senetta Wilson Carter. Case number 22002628CF10A Broward County Courts
As of April 1, 2022:
Attorney General Ashley Moody’s Medicaid Fraud Control Unit and the Hollywood Police Department arrested the owner and operator of a Medicaid-provider facility for committing more than $77,000 in Medicaid fraud. Senetta Wilson Carter operated Rayfield Family Literacy, a school that provided services for Medicaid recipients, many with severe disabilities. According to the MFCU’s investigation, Carter submitted falsified claims to Medicaid for online-based services not provided.
The investigation revealed that Carter fraudulently billed Medicaid for 10 months. Several interviews with parents or relatives of the Medicaid recipients revealed that RFL attempted to move much of its care online by using electronic tablets. Many patients who could not use the tablets did not receive any help; however, Carter still billed Medicaid for services not rendered.
Carter is charged with one count of Medicaid provider fraud, a first-degree felony and grand theft, a second-degree felony. If convicted, Carter faces up to 45 years in prison. The Broward County State Attorney’s Office in the 17th Judicial Circuit is prosecuting the case.LINK: http://www.myfloridalegal.com/newsrel.nsf/newsreleases/D56E67A4D851534D852588170050988B?Open&
