A Bethlehem chiropractor pleaded guilty in federal court to fraudulently submitting $236,000 in health insurance claims for patients he didn’t see and days he didn’t work, authorities said.
Nicholas Bufanio, 53, of Hellertown, who operated Community Chiropractic Inc. in Bethlehem since at least 2011, pleaded guilty to one count of health care fraud, according to the U.S. attorney’s office for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
