William McMiller, MD, 69, owns Dr. Bill’s Learning Center, which has two locations, one in Chicago and one in Oak Park, according to a Feb. 6 news release from the Illinois attorney general’s office. The centers offer tutoring services to children in addition to clinical therapy and psychiatric services.
Dr. McMiller’s niece — Jonise Williams, 39, of Matteson, Ill. — handled billing for the centers, and together they submitted claims to the state’s Medicaid program for medical services that were not provided.
Ms. Williams previously pleaded guilty to vendor fraud and was sentenced to probation, the release said.
