Ok.
My boyfriends mom is having a major back surgury done in February. She had a person donate $10,000 to her for the expenses. She has all the money that has been donated and earned in a medical account, with her friend who is also on the account. She will be out of town for about 2 to 3 weeks, and she decided that it might be useful for her to have a laptop for research and bill paying. She used some of her medical money for this. Her friend called her in hysterics telling her that it was fraud and that she had to send it back or else she would take herself off the medical account and she wouldn’t go with her.
Is buying the computer really fraud? She’s willing to send it back, if she’s going to get in trouble, but not just because her friend says she has to. She has other people to go with her, and that she can put on the account.
Thanks
–Julie ?
As I said, She is willing to send the computer back, and she didn’t know that she wasn’t supposed to buy the laptop with that money, because it was donated by all family, but she was just wondering if that was just her friend being dumb, or if she was right. She will send the computer back immediately.
Sorry guys!
the donations were made to cover ALL costs, not just medical bills. that’s why she didn’t know it would be fraud

Divorced since 2003, ex does not live with me nor is a dependant, NOT on cobra, and remarried in 2004 (lives with new wife). A georgia policeman told me “you can insure anyone you want”. 24 calls to other insurance agents all agree with me- it is not legal. Who is really right???

PS- if the health ins was provided under a domestic partners policy would that be fraud in ga??
I asked the police because I’m the new wife. It’s not Cobra, it’s Ex-wife and MY husband in this fraud together. I have her insurance card (renewed in 2006) showing her name and his. OUR marriage in 04, he lives w/me, but has mail to her house.
Police blow me off as a revengeful liar trying to get the law to violate HIS privacy laws.
If nothing else, her employer is getting screwed to cover someone not elegible. Proof of the fraud will strengthen my divorce case, I think.

Hillary is the leading expert on Universal Health care in the USA. As a First Lady she outlined a brilliant program — but it didn’t not pass. That’s not a friggin failure.

I’ve always learned when something is the right, don’t give up. So to listen to people that really are so nasty, and seem to have a limited knowledge of political history say, Hillary is the expert and one who will make Universal Health Care happen and make it affordable. Obama is a copy cat.

Obama will lose the GE. A legitimate Black candidate who really has worked hard for people in the USA will come up. Obama will be an insignificant Senator then fade into oblivion.

Sometimes charismatic people who are basically all ego and strategy with no real commitment to help people prevail — Bush. Obama wants to be Bush. I want change, and Obama is a fraud.

I see this as fraud because the hospital is taking private information ( social) from one account and applying it to another with a mispelled name and no social.
