Traumatized, it is understood that Brigitte is. This nurse liberal 63 years quietly lunched at a restaurant in January 2007, when she saw her daughter and son decapitated by the propellers of a helicopter that had crashed in the parking lot. Everyone remembers the tragedy of the accident the restaurant "Chez Bob" in which 3 people were killed (the case is still pending), a terrible tragedy that has hit hard the people of Port- Saint-Louis du Rhone. And that marked the beginning of a scam in which she delivered to the Primary health insurance fund (CPAM), for which she appeared yesterday in the criminal court of Tarascon.
tried for fraud and embezzlement, the woman hunched in a small bun strict acknowledged that it had overcharged many benefits. His twenty patients were almost all noticed it accounted hygiene care unrealized, it reduced the duration of care charged, she was performing more acts than those prescribed by the doctor or even that it doubled the number of miles between visits. Between early 2007 and late 2008, nearly 36 000 Euro she defrauded the CPAM, plaintiff. But if the nurse recognizes his mistake and has already begun to repay the misused, it maintains that it is "negligence."
"The negligence"
"I do not look at my watch every time to know how much time I spent with my patient. There are also acts and passages I n 'have not scored, so that services rendered were not together in nomenclature of billing. But I admit I made mistakes, "she said, before noting that she worked for 40 years at a rate of 12 to 14 hours a day, without rest on weekends. "Six months of toilets not made, it is not an error of a few cents: there are too many defects for a pure negligence" replied the prosecutor Alexander Rossi. Which, however, does not want this case discredits an entire profession whose presence in court was "extremely rare".
recognizing the efforts of the defendant, the representative of the prosecution was therefore not required for disqualification, but requested a sentence sufficient to deter that Brigitte was not tempted to start: 10 month prison sentence and 4,000 euro fine. Requisitions that have met the defense lawyer. "The tragedy she lived justifies nothing but can explain some things. It should be noted that his patients have suffered no financial loss and that some of those who testified against her, still be trusted to their care. In this context, for which she has not taken a vacation in 40 years and has not been sanctioned by their professional body, the worst punishment would prevent him from carrying on 2 years of retirement " pleaded Mosqueron master. The ruling was reserved on April 5th.
