PEORIA, Ill. – It took investigators a year, but a chiropractor in Eureka — but who had locations in places like Peoria over the years — is facing federal charges accusing her of fraud.
Documents filed in federal court in Peoria Tuesday by a grand jury indicate Carrie Musselman is facing one count of Healthcare Fraud, nine counts of Wire Fraud, and two counts of Obstruction of a Federal Audit.
Musselman — as owner and operator of Preferred Care Medical Center — allegedly defrauded Medicare starting in 2016, and made false statement about physicians she claimed to work with in 2018.
The indictment seeks $1.6 million in damages, and for Musselman forfeit any property that may be traced to the fraud — both in Eureka and Congerville.
Musselman will be arraigned in Peoria October 6th. The FBI raided the Eureka location late last October.
