Investigation also yields theft and conspiracy charges against 18 other people
Attorney General Michelle Henry announced that a Montgomery County-based home care agency, its owner, and 18 other people, have been charged in a scheme that allegedly defrauded the Medicaid program out of millions of dollars.
Stephanie Mobley owned ComfortZone Home Health Care, LLC, a Bala Cynwyd-based Medicaid provider permitted to provide Personal Assistance Services to eligible recipients. Mobley, her daughter, Naya Campbell, — who served as Mobley’s second in command — and others conspired to defraud the program by submitting claims for reimbursement for services that were not provided, according to charges filed by the Office of Attorney General.
All 20 defendants are charged with Medicaid fraud, theft by deception, receiving stolen property, tampering with public records and conspiracy.
Many of the defendants are Mobley’s relatives. All 20 defendants were expected to surrender and be arraigned this week in Montgomery County court.
“The Medicaid program is designed to help vulnerable people in the Commonwealth, not line the pockets of those who deliberately exploit it,” Henry said. “Every dollar stolen from the Medicaid program deprives an individual or family in need of funding that could have paid for essential services.”
The charges were filed following a two-year, collaborative investigation by the Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General Medicaid Fraud Control Section and the FBI. The investigation also received assistance from U.S. Customs and Border Protection. The case culminated in a presentment from the Fiftieth Statewide Investigating Grand Jury recommending charges.
In all, charged are Mobley, 52; Jasmine Mobley, 66; Willie Marks, 49 — all of King of Prussia; Campbell, 29, of Audubon; Dwayne Marks, 50; Barbara Thomas, 45; Travis Thomas, 42; Tysheem Thomas, 23; Leon Montgomery, 36; Cierra Campbell, 25; Dominique Mobley, 56; Jasmin Bollers, 37; Tiffany Hogans, 34; Antonio Gay, 34; Michael Dunson, 28; Anajah Dunson, 23; Chelsea Peoples, 27; Sabrina Grace, 29; Quamir Oliver, 29; and Tiara Broaddus, 29 — all of Philadelphia.
Mobley, Campbell, and Barbara Thomas are also charged with corrupt organizations. Dominique Mobley, Antonio Gay, and Tiffany Hogans are also charged with perjury.
The crimes are alleged to have taken place from 2020 to 2023.
