A Crown Point woman is accused of healthcare fraud and aggravated identity theft in federal court, after allegedly using a false identity to establish Sanctuary Health LLC and bilk Indiana Medicaid and other insurers out of more than $135,000 in reimbursement payments over two years.
Reese was granted a federally appointed defender and has been held without bond pending the hearing to allow for pretrial services to prepare a report and home assessment of the defendant’s residence.In documents, Powell laid out a timeline showing that on or around Feb. 27, 2020 Reese applied for a clinical psychologist job with a comprehensive mental health service company in Munster which was an authorized Medicaid Provider.
Reese’s application to Company A also included a copy of a fraudulent license claiming she was licensed as a clinical psychologist with the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation. She also allegedly submitted an IPLA identification number and falsely claimed it was hers. During Reese’s employment at Company A, Indiana Medicaid paid more than $36,000 for services Reese claimed she provided. Reese was terminated from her job around Sept. 24, 2021.
The address listed on Sanctuary Counseling’s website — 18125 Roy St., Suite 402, in Lansing, Illinois — is actually the location of the U.S. Post Office.
