Health insurance companies cheated out of almost 20,000 euros
The accusations weighed heavily. And they came up twice on wednesday. In room 14 of the district court, the head of a care service provider based in the district had to answer for his actions. Two indictments have been filed, one for withholding pay and one for fraud.
The claim was made in a rough manner. To examine all the evidence, invoices and recollections raised by witnesses should require a second hearing after a decision by ulrike barausch. This led to the separation of the proceedings and the reassignment of the issue of labor compensation. All the more time, therefore, to deal with the allegation of fraud, on which the 41-year-old defendant was to take a stand. It was a matter of incorrectly billed services in the period between november 2014 and january 2016, which were allegedly not provided at several points in time to five sick persons. However, they were offset and recovered from four health insurance companies. According to prosecutor michael koch, the resulting damage amounted to a total of 19,762.68 euros, which the insurers were cheated out of.
Right at the beginning of the trial, the defendant admitted that all "invoices and contacts with the health insurance companies" had been made the budget passed over its table. But the question was whether it was the 41-year-old himself who entered services into the forms that were never provided. For a long time it was supposed to look as if everything would remain opaque. On one occasion, the accused stated that the initials left on a form were not his, but those of a representative, and on another occasion, he stated that he had merely signed the performance records submitted to him by employees. So if it was they who did the manipulating?
The defendant’s lawyer, florian donath, also considered this variant to be possible, which prosecutor michael kuch was pleased to comment on in the defendant’s direction: "in summary, you have nothing to do with settlements and the accusations come from employees who have conspired against you?"
Real shadows fell on the person of the head of the nursing service in the sixth hour of negotiations, when a former employee spoke of choleric attacks of her former boss and when other former and current employees began to talk about the fact that their wages and salaries had not been paid or had been paid late. A co-worker even told of it, at present "because of all the incidents in therapy" to be. The testimony of a woman who claimed care for a family member and who claimed that the defendant had tried to get her to sign a care form "in blank" also weighed heavily. Neither the services rendered nor the time were noted on the paper.
A social security employee who took the stand was able to confirm that the information came from a business office in bayreuth, that she was insured and that she had been given the opportunity to testify. Employees of the care service had come forward and heard about wrong signatures or. Signed off not rendered services spoken of. "So we gave the whole case to the public prosecutor’s office." A verdict was not pronounced on wednesday. But already on 10. On january the matter will be renegotiated in a continuation date.
