BEATRICE, Neb. (AP) - A Beatrice pharmacist is scheduled to be sentenced March 2 for defrauding Medicaid.
Online court records say 50-year-old Tod Lundberg pleaded guilty last week to one count of fraud. His plea agreement with prosecutors calls for him to pay restitution of nearly $38,000.
Prosecutors say Lundberg billed Nebraska Medicaid for the brand name of certain drugs and then dispensed the generic version of those drugs. Medicaid then paid Lundberg a higher price for the brand-name version of the drug.
Prosecutors say Lundberg carried out his scheme from at least 2010 through 2013. A former employee told authorities about the scheme.
