A Waterbury man has been arrested and charged with defrauding Medicaid by billing the government healthcare program for personal care assistant and independent living skills services he did not perform. Tywan Marion, age 48, of Waterbury, was arrested on April 10, 2025, by inspectors from the Medicaid Fraud Control Unit in the Office of the Chief State’s Attorney. Marion was enrolled as a provider in the Connecticut Medical Assistants Program (CMAP) as a Personal Care Assistant (PCA) and also to provide Independent Living Skill Services. Investigation showed that from June 2021 to August 2023, Marion billed for PCA and independent life skill services never provided to the recipient while he resided in Texas. Marion was paid $109,655.55 by Medicaid for these unrendered services. Investigation also revealed that between March 2021 to July 2023, Marion completed a job application for a co-conspirator and submitted timesheets on her behalf for PCA services she did not provide. The co-conspirator received payment and then transferred a portion of that money to Marion. The fraudulent money received for this scheme totaled $44,476.57.
