Ore. A.G. Notes Indictment of Clinical Social Worker

Oregon Attorney General Hardy Myers announced that Robert F. White, a licensed clinical social worker in Manzanita, was indicted by the Tillamook County Grand Jury. The indictment alleges 73 separate felony counts of Making False Claims for Health Care Payments.

The indictment stems from White’s submission of health care claims for counseling services provided patients, which were paid by federally funded health care programs and private insurance companies.

It is alleged that White submitted numerous insurance claims for counseling services which never actually took place.
