A Morgan Hill man was convicted for defrauding insurance companies at his Los Gatos chiropractic office to the tune of a quarter-million dollars earlier this month, according to a press release from the Santa Clara County District Attorney's office.
Robert A. Demarco, 42 of Blue Jay Drive, pleaded guilty to grand theft and presenting a false insurance claim in May, and was sentenced in Superior Court Nov. 3. He received a two-year prison sentence, and was ordered to pay more than $250,000 in restitution, the press release stated.
As the owner and operator of a Los Gatos chiropractic office, Demarco submitted fraudulent billings to nine different insurance companies. He was caught when 25 patients received billing statements that did not match the treatment they received.
