Overcomers Day Services, LLC (DeKalb County, GA) — Georgia Medicaid Fraud

Outcome: Owners Kim Higgins and Marcel Higgens indicted on conspiracy to commit Medicaid fraud and 23 substantive Medicaid fraud counts for defrauding Georgia Medicaid of over $1.4 million.

Kim Higgins and Marcel Higgens of Woodstock, Georgia, owned and operated Overcomers Day Services, LLC, a behavioral health facility in DeKalb County providing Intensive Family Intervention services to children covered by Georgia Medicaid. The defendants allegedly exploited this program to submit fraudulent claims totaling more than $1.4 million.

Intensive Family Intervention services are designed to provide therapeutic support to at-risk children and families in their homes and communities. The program is particularly vulnerable to billing fraud because services are delivered in private settings and can be difficult to verify through third-party documentation. The indictment alleges the defendants fraudulently billed Medicaid for services that were not properly rendered.

Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr announced the indictment on December 16, 2025. The charges include one count of conspiracy to commit Medicaid fraud and 23 substantive Medicaid fraud counts, reflecting a pattern of repeated fraudulent submissions over the duration of the scheme.

How Crucible Prevents This

Crucible's service-delivery verification controls for intensive family intervention programs would flag billing anomalies; a compliance gate requiring documented case notes and service logs for each billed Medicaid session would surface fraudulent claims before payment.
