On October 17, 2017, MHMR of Tarrant County (MHMR), Fort Worth, Texas, entered into a $97,869.78 settlement agreement with OIG. The settlement agreement resolves allegations that MHMR employed an individual who was excluded from participation in any Federal health care programs. OIG's investigation revealed that the excluded individual, a program director, provided items or services to MHMR clients who were receiving services funded by a Medicaid waiver program. Senior Counsel Keshia Thompson represented OIG with the assistance of Paralegal Specialist Eula Taylor.
