Dentist Finder San Diego

51-year-old Kathy Salazar was sentenced in Superior Court to one year in prison and seven years probation for felony insurance fraud.

Salazar pleaded guilty to submitting false insurance claims for dental procedures that were never performed and then pocketing the insurance checks. Salazar was ordered to pay a $5,000 fine and $88,408 in restitution to a St. Johns’ dentist she worked for more than 28 years.

Prosecutors say the case was uncovered during a routine audit performed by Delta Dental which showed irregularities in submitted claims.
