CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — A former business manager for a San Antonio nursing home has been sentenced to 10 years in prison for misappropriating funds from Medicaid recipients, a press release from Attorney General Ken Paxton’s Medicaid Fraud Control Unit said.
Robyn Nicole Calica, who worked at the Heights on Huebner nursing home, was found to have stolen money from the resident trust fund account at the nursing home and from the personal bank accounts of Medicaid recipients. Overall, investigators found that she had stolen $309,044.
According to the release, Calica previously only pled guilty to one count of second-degree theft. Since then, she has been ordered “to pay $124,690 in restitution to the Heights on Huebner facility and $18,276 to victims’ families.”
