Columbus,OH(WorkersCompensation.com) - A Cleveland-area nurse was ordered to pay the Ohio Bureau of Workers Compensation (BWC) more than $23,000 in restitution April 7 after BWC discovered her working while collecting injured-worker benefits.
A Franklin County judge ordered Tanya Houston, 46, of Shaker Heights to pay $23,489 to BWC and serve five years of probation in lieu of a one-year prison sentence after she pleaded guilty to a fifth-degree felony count of workers compensation fraud.
