Natasha Allmon, 49, of Oklahoma City, was sentenced on May 1 to serve 20 months in federal prison for health care fraud, according to U.S. Attorney Robert J. Troester.
Allmon’s sentencing follows her guilty plea to charges related to submitting false claims for behavioral health counseling services through Blue Cross Blue Shield between January 2021 and December 2023. The case highlights ongoing efforts by federal authorities to address fraud that impacts both private insurers and the broader healthcare system.
Court records show that Allmon submitted thousands of fraudulent claims for psychiatric treatment sessions she claimed were provided nearly every day of the year—sometimes even claiming more than a full day’s worth of sessions in a single day—for family members who did not receive such services. In total, she received close to $1.1 million from approximately $1.4 million in false claims.
Allmon was charged with health care fraud on August 1, 2025, pleaded guilty two weeks later, and admitted she knowingly executed a scheme against a healthcare benefit program. At her sentencing hearing on April 28, U.S. District Judge Timothy D. DeGiusti ordered her imprisonment as well as two years of supervised release and restitution of nearly $1.1 million to Blue Cross Blue Shield.
“In announcing his sentence,” the release states, “Judge DeGiusti noted the prolonged nature of Allmon’s fraud scheme, the significant loss to BCBS, and the seriousness of health care fraud against private and governmental insurers.” The investigation was conducted by the FBI Oklahoma City Field Office and prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney D.H. Dilbeck.
