In Germany, a health insurance scam is revealed, or how to earn 4.7 million euros

April 12, 2023

A married couple and their adult son, who jointly run Pflegedienst, are accused of fraud in the amount of almost five million euros, which were received from health insurance funds. It is assumed that the main motive for the revealed scam was the family’s desire to secure a comfortable and comfortable existence. All suspects are in custody.

In Franconia, a couple and their adult son are said to have stolen more than 4.7 million euros from outpatient mutuals. Nuremberg prosecutors have charged the family with 1,022 gang fraud charges for crimes committed in the Würzburg and Kitzingen area, prosecutors said. The regional court of Nürnberg-Fürth must decide whether they are guilty.

The parents, aged 56 and 47, and their 26-year-old son are accused of charging for services without having a carer in charge as required by law. Such a worker must ensure the quality of care and prevent existing shortcomings. It is alleged that due to the absence of a specialist, the defendants could, at their discretion, modify the documentation of the services allegedly provided to the insurance companies, thereby minimizing the quality of the services actually provided.

In addition to a guilty verdict, the prosecutor also wants to obtain the confiscation of the assets. To this end, the mortgages of seven properties have already been brought under control and assets worth €1.6 million have been seized. The suspects are in custody. Investigators found their trace thanks to an anonymous denunciation.
