An Alexandria licensed producer has been issued a cease and desist
order and summary suspension for allegedly submitting falsified claims.
Stacy Buie Anderson, 29, was served today with a cease and desist
order, summary suspension and notice of proposed action, resulting
in the revocation of her license and a $5,000 fine by Department
of Insurance Fraud Section Investigators for allegedly falsifying
health insurance claims on her children. It is alleged that during
the years of 2005 through 2008, Ms. Anderson altered claims for her
children in order to receive additional benefits. It is further alleged
that she submitted claims for services that were never rendered.
Department
records show that Stacy Anderson is a Louisiana licensed producer.
She held a current property and casualty license until
today’s actions. Ms. Anderson also held a life and health license,
which lapsed April 30, 2008.
Commissioner Donelon urges consumers who feel uneasy about any insurance
related transaction to call the Department of Insurance Fraud Section
at 225-342-4956 or 1-800-259-5300. If callers do not want their names
used, they can request that their involvement be kept confidential.
