PEORIA Ill. – A Eureka woman has been found guilty of defrauding Medicare and other insurance companies out of more than $1.5 million.
According to the United States Attorney’s Office, A federal jury returned a guilty verdict late Friday evening against Carrie Musselman, 48, of Eureka.
The courts found that Musselman, a chiropractor in Eureka, engaged in a scheme to defraud Medicare and other insurance companies.
As part of the scheme, Musselman disguised the identity of the people providing services and misrepresented the nature of the services that had actually been provided.
Musselman remains released on bond.
At her sentencing in June, Musselman faces statutory penalties of up to 10 years’ in prison, for the healthcare fraud charge – and up to 20 years for each of the wire fraud charges, to be followed by up to three years of supervised release.
Sentencing for Musselman has been scheduled for June 24, 2025, at the Peoria County Courthouse.
