Chiropractor Indicted on Work Comp Fraud Charges

Fairfield, Ohio chiropractor has been indicted on charges of workers compensation fraud and theft, following an investigation by the Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation Special Investigations Department (BWC SID). According to Fox19.com, Bruce Holaday, owner of Back and Spine Center on Mack Road, was indicted by a Franklin County grand jury.

BWC SID initiated an investigation after receiving an allegation saying Holaday was concealing from BWC his direct involvement in the treatment of injured workers. Holaday was unlawfully using the names and provider identification numbers of the chiropractors with whom he practiced after being permanently decertified as a BWC health care provider, preventing him from seeking and obtaining reimbursement from BWC.

Holaday also pleaded guilty to a charge of workers comp fraud in December of 1996, when he was proprietor of Advantage Care Chiropractic, Inc. He billed BWC for $13,006 in services he did not provide.
