Pennsylvania Nurse Practitioner Sentenced to 10 Years of Probation for $450K in Prescription Fraud

Attorney General Michelle Henry announced that a Bradford County nurse practitioner was sentenced to ten years of restrictive probation after pleading guilty last month to prescribing medications without a collaborating doctor and false billing. Stefanie King, 46, of Ulster, Pa., will serve ten years of probation, with the first six months on home confinement with an electronic monitor, and pay nearly $450,000 restitution. King was sentenced Monday in Bradford County Court after pleading guilty last month to several felonies. Some of the criminal conduct happened while she was engaged in an inappropriate relationship with a patient. King previously surrendered her Certified Registered Nurse Practitioner’s license.
