New York Ambulance Company Settles Case Involving False Claims

On November 13, 2015, SeniorCare Emergency Medical Services, Inc. (SeniorCare), of the Bronx, New York, entered into a $103,334 settlement agreement with OIG. The settlement agreement resolves allegations that SeniorCare submitted claims for emergency ambulance transportation to destinations such as skilled nursing facilities and patient residences that should have been billed at the lower non-emergency rate. OIG’s Consolidated Data Analysis Center and Office of Counsel to the Inspector General, represented by Associate Counsel Michael Torrisi and Senior Counsel Andrea Treese Berlin, collaborated to achieve this settlement.
