A West Hartford woman has been arrested and charged with submitting false claims to the Connecticut Medicaid Health Insurance Program.
Lorena Soto-Bunker, 48, of Seneca Road, West Hartford, was arrested Wednesday by Inspectors from the Medicaid Fraud Control Unit in the Office of the Chief State’s Attorney, and charged with one count of health insurance fraud.
According to the arrest warrant affidavit, between September 2018 and September 2019, Soto-Bunker was not a licensed behavioral health therapist.
Despite that, state officials said she worked for Collaborative Counseling Center, LLC, a company that was owned and operated by Alicia Thompkins.
