A Parkville mother and daughter who stole $3.6 million from Medicaid through fake patient records, forged signatures and stolen identities have been sentenced in a sweeping fraud case that prosecutors say targeted some of Maryland's most vulnerable residents.

Between November 2019 and September 2024, the mother operated two behavioral health companies, Guiding Lives Inc. and Another Chance Supportive Services LLC (ACSS), that submitted fraudulent claims for Psychiatric Rehabilitation Program services. The mother recruited her daughter to manage and conduct billing for Guiding Lives Inc. Source: Baltimore Sun via YahooNews  and Maryland AG.
