Still not enough, more jail time should have been given.
"Nevertheless, PFCS submitted fifteen separate claim forms seeking payment from the VA for services purportedly provided by Ms. McNeill to W.R. between October 2015 and December 2016, resulting in payment by the VA of $11,273.92. The federal False Claims Act, however, mandates that the government recover three times the damages caused by the fraud, plus civil penalties for false or fraudulent claims. PFCS agreed to pay $45,486.76 to resolve the claims.
Earlier in 2021, Ms. McNeill was convicted of wire fraud for her misconduct related to W.R., was sentenced to 12 months and 1 day in federal prison, and was ordered to pay over $90,000 in restitution."
