Ohio Therapist to Repay Workers’ Compensation Board $2.1M

An Ohio man convicted of performing physical therapy on injured workers without a license has been sentenced to 37 months in federal prison.

U.S. District Court Judge Herman Weber sentenced Michael Stinson in federal court in Columbus following Stinson’s guilty plea last year.

Stinson was convicted in June of providing therapy services without a license and billing for treatment and services which were never provided.

Stinson was ordered to repay more than $2.1 million to the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation and $92,000 to the Internal Revenue Service.
