NEWARK - An insurance producer from Lakewood admitted in court Monday to filing false statements to affiliates of the health insurance giant Blue Cross Blue Shield in order to obtain $1.5 million in fraudulent claims, authorities said.
Jonas Knopf, 65, pleaded guilty to one count of making false statements related to a health care benefits program, Acting U.S. Attorney Rachael A. Honig said in a news release. The hearing was held by videoconference before Chief U.S. District Court Judge Freda L. Wolfson.
Knopf, who was the CEO of Lakewood-based Madison Financial Services and was a licensed insurance producer tasked with selling insurance products, helped create two sham companies which existed only to market health insurance coverage to people who were not his employees, federal prosecutors alleged.
