Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell and her office have reached a $2.6 million settlement with MedStar Ambulance, Inc., along with its parent corporation and affiliates, to resolve allegations that the company submitted false claims to MassHealth, the state’s Medicaid program. Based in Leominster, MedStar provides services in multiple cities and towns in Central and Western Massachusetts, including Chicopee, Fitchburg, Leominster, Northampton and Worcester. The AG’s Office contends that MedStar Ambulance, Inc., its parent corporation, Critical Systems, Inc., and its affiliates, Fitchburg Emergency Medical Services, Inc., MedStar EMS, Inc., MetroWest Emergency Medical Services Inc., and Pioneer Valley Emergency Medical Services., knowingly submitted false claims to MassHealth for emergency ambulance services, when only a less expensive nonemergency level of service was provided.
