In a statement filed as part of a lawsuit brought by Washington state's attorney general, an employee says their manager told her to stop entering insurance information into the data entry system.
Tina Morales worked at the headquarters of the troubled Center for COVID Control in Rolling Meadows, Illinois.
As the omicron variant hit, Morales says the data she was told to put in the system was not always accurate. Washington's attorney general says the result was the company overbilling a federal fund for the uninsured. All of it, money approved by Congress to cover COVID tests — only for Americans without health insurance. Providers must confirm a"patient is uninsured" before requesting reimbursement, up to $100 per test.
Her declaration says,"The data entry for all incoming patients began to reflect that every patient was uninsured... And that CCC would submit claims for reimbursement to the federal government." Everybody in that entire building knew that any test that was over 72 hours old, there's no rNA to test. It would come back as inconclusive either way.Another statement filed in court by a second ex-employee says Syed would encourage staff to test their friends and family"even when they didn't need to get tested so that CCC could get reimbursed" by the government.
