Missouri Christian nonprofit owners accused of making millions while clients left with tens of thousands in unpaid medical expenses.
Two pregnant women, a heart attack sufferer and a woman who needed airlifting to a hospital after a stroke were amongst hundreds victims of an alleged $4 million fraud perpetrated by a Christian ministry offering an Obamacare alternative, according to the FBI.
The involvement of the FBI points to an escalation in government attempts to prosecute ministries failing their clients. A handful of state regulators previously Reynolds has denied all claims laid out by the Justice Department. McGinnis had not responded to a request for comment. No criminal charges have been filed, though an injunction on MCS has been issued and the company’s website ordered to close.
Another member suffered a stroke and was flown to hospital, with her bills totalling $125,000, the FBI said. After paying nearly $11,000 in membership dues, she forwarded the bills to MCS for processing, only to be told nothing would be covered, the Justice Department claimed. Furthermore, she was told she would be cut off from the ministry because of “lies” told in the application process relating to her high blood pressure, per the search warrant.
