A federal grand jury in Pittsburgh has issued a superseding indictment against Kelley Oliver-Hollis, 61, of East Hills. The indictment adds new charges to those previously filed in April 2024, according to Acting United States Attorney Troy Rivetti.
Oliver-Hollis, owner of SerenityCare LLC in Penn Hills, is accused of health care fraud, making false statements relating to health care matters, concealment of material facts related to health care matters, money laundering, and misuse of Social Security benefits by a representative payee. Prosecutors allege that from December 2016 through July 2023, Oliver-Hollis orchestrated a scheme to overbill Pennsylvania Medicaid for services provided by SerenityCare to residents with intellectual disabilities.
The original indictment included 33 counts. The new superseding indictment expands the case to 40 counts.
If convicted on all charges, Oliver-Hollis faces up to ten years in prison and a $250,000 fine for the health care fraud and money laundering charges. The charges related to false statements, concealment of facts in healthcare matters, and Social Security fraud carry penalties of up to five years in prison and an additional $250,000 fine. Sentencing would be determined based on the seriousness of the offenses and any prior criminal history under federal guidelines.
Assistant United States Attorney Gregory C. Melucci is leading the prosecution for the government.
Multiple agencies participated in the investigation: the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Internal Revenue Service (IRS), Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), U.S. Department of Labor, Allegheny County District Attorney’s Office, and Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General.
“A superseding indictment is an accusation. A defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.”
The U.S. Attorney’s Office encourages community members to report suspected healthcare fraud by contacting the FBI’s tipline at WDPAhealthcarefraud@fbi.gov or HHS at 1-800-HHS-TIPS.
