OKLAHOMA CITY – NATASHA ALLMON, 49, of Oklahoma City, has been sentenced to serve 20 months in federal prison for health care fraud, announced U.S. Attorney Robert J. Troester.
According to public records, from January 2021 through December 2023, Allmon had an agreement with Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS) to provide behavioral health counseling services. During that time, Allmon submitted, and caused to be submitted, thousands of false and fraudulent claims to BCBS for behavioral health counseling sessions purportedly provided to family members. Court records allege that Allmon routinely claimed to have provided 60-minute psychiatric treatment sessions to family members nearly every day of the year and, at times, claimed to have treated beneficiaries for more than 24 hours in a single day. In total, Allmon submitted approximately $1.4 million in claims for services, receiving close to $1.1 million in reimbursements from BCBS.
On August 1, 2025, Allmon was charged by Information with health care fraud. Allmon pleaded guilty on August 15, 2025, and admitted she knowingly executed a scheme to defraud a healthcare benefit program.
At a sentencing hearing on April 28, 2026, U.S. District Judge Timothy D. DeGiusti sentenced Allmon to serve 20 months in federal prison, followed by two years of supervised release. Allmon was also ordered to pay nearly $1.1 million in restitution to BCBS. In announcing his sentence, 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.
This case is the result of an investigation by the FBI Oklahoma City Field Office. Assistant U.S. Attorney D.H. Dilbeck prosecuted the case.
