LOS ANGELES—A Redondo Beach woman was found guilty on June 27 of nearly two dozen felonies for billing Medicare more than $24 million by submitting fraudulent claims for medically unnecessary durable medical equipment—mostly power wheelchairs—and repairs, many of which were never performed.
Tamara Motley, 54, was found guilty by a federal jury in downtown Los Angeles of 20 counts of healthcare fraud, two counts of aggravated identity theft, and one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
