202 N Cedar Ave, Owatonna — Ghost Billing Cluster Dossier

Author: Minnesota Medicaid Transparency Project | Last updated: 2026-04-14

Deep-dive investigation of a $49/year virtual mailbox in Owatonna, Minnesota registered as the business address for 76 Medicaid providers — 72.3% unlicensed, billing at 5.25x realistic capacity, with direct ties to a $10.9M federal fraud case.

Cluster Overview

• Total providers at address: 76 (50 organizations, 26 individuals)
• Unlicensed rate: 72.3% of providers have no license number in NPI registration
• Mailbox cost: $49/year (virtual UPS Store mailbox — not a healthcare facility)
• Average mailing distance from Owatonna: 267.8 miles
• Out-of-state mailing addresses: Sacramento, CA, Toms River, NJ, Brooklyn, NY, Cheyenne, WY

Billing Capacity Analysis

Billing analysis compares the cluster's total claimed capacity against what is demographically feasible for the Owatonna service area.

• Total claimed weekly billing capacity: 840 hours/week
• Realistic maximum (100% of local ABA-eligible children): 160 hours/week
• Overbilling ratio: 5.25x realistic capacity
• The cluster would need to serve 100% of all ABA-eligible children within 2.25 miles of Owatonna, billing 840 weekly hours with capacity for only 160. Billing exceeds realistic capacity by 5.25x.

Credential Verification Results

• Total providers verified: 47
• Verified licensed: 9
• No license number in NPPES: 34
• Not found / inactive: 4
• 72% of providers checked at this address have NO license number in their NPI registration. For behavioral health taxonomies requiring state licensure (LICSW, LPCC, LMFT), this is a critical enrollment integrity failure.

Connection to Abdirashid Said Fraud Network

MN Home Health Care LLC was filed at 202 N Cedar Ave Suite 1 on 2023-03-23, two months after Abdirashid Said was placed on the OIG exclusion list (2023-01-19). Said is a fugitive with a $10.9M fraud case and a prior 2022 Medicaid fraud conviction.

• SOS manager: A.M.A. (uncharged, initials only)
• Actual owner (per AG complaint): Abdiweli Mohamud (charged, per AG complaint)
• Fraud amount: $1.8M
• Billing type: PCA services
• MN Home Health Care LLC is directly linked to Abdirashid Said, a fugitive with a $10.9M fraud case, prior 2022 Medicaid fraud conviction, and OIG exclusion since January 2023. The entity was filed at the Owatonna ghost billing address using a 24-year-old straw owner (A.M.A.) with no criminal history.

Straw Owner Indicators

• SOS manager (A.M.A., age 24 at filing) differs from AG-identified owner (Abdiweli Mohamud)
• Entity filed 2 months AFTER Said placed on OIG LEIE (excluded 1/19/2023, filed 3/23/2023)
• A.M.A. has only parking tickets — no criminal history — classic straw-owner profile
• A.M.A. had Rice County traffic violations — Rice County borders Steele County (Owatonna)

Investigated Suspect Providers (8 total)

Key Findings

• 202 N Cedar Ave is a $49/year mail-forwarding service — NOT a healthcare facility
• Building owned by Parrott & Smith LLC, managed by attorney M.R.C. — taxes delinquent ($12,570 due, $0 receipts)
• 76 Medicaid providers use this virtual mailbox as their practice address
• Average provider mailing address is 268 miles away — providers in Brooklyn NY, Sacramento CA, Toms River NJ, Monsey NY
• 72% of checked providers have NO license number in their NPI registration
• 2 of 5 diagnosticians verified as legitimate MN-licensed psychiatrists; 1 (Northstar/N.B.) is highly suspect with 5 taxonomy codes and zero web presence
• Billing profile is classic EIDBI: Mental Health Counselors, Behavior Technicians, Clinical Social Workers
• Caseload analysis: cluster bills 5.25x more hours than realistic capacity allows
• OIG exclusion matches for Angel Wings and Danielle Anderson LLC are likely FALSE POSITIVES — different middle names and/or birth years confirmed via licensing board searches
• D.M.A. (LPCC #665, MN Sex Offender Program) is real and licensed, but using ghost mailbox for side practice 'Daring Threads Therapy'
• L.T.T. (LICSW #28739) is real and licensed, but using ghost mailbox as practice address while potentially living 0.3 miles away
• Zion HSS (O.M.) uses TWO virtual mailbox addresses — Sheridan WY (53,267 businesses) for mail, Owatonna for practice. Zero web presence.
• Northstar Psychology (N.B.) — 5 different taxonomy codes on one NPI, zero web presence, Sacramento mailing address. CONFIRMED name-jacking: real North Star Psychology PLLC (northstarpsychmn.com) is a legitimate solo virtual therapy practice — completely different entity.
• Inner Milestones MN (B.S.) — brand new NPI (May 2025), website/Instagram claim LA California operations but NPI practice address is Owatonna ghost mailbox. Three-state spread: NJ mail, MN NPI, CA claimed operations.
• Direct link to Abdirashid Said fraud network ($10.9M, fugitive) via MN Home Health Care LLC registered at Suite 1
• Said's entity filed at this address 2 months after his OIG exclusion, using a 24-year-old straw owner (A.M.A.)
• MN Registered Agent Services LLC Facebook lists a Minneapolis address (1660 Highway 100 S, Ste 500A) — not the Owatonna location
• PHONE SHARING CLUSTER 1: [redacted] shared by Krystal Gross (NPI 1649155342, unlicensed Behavior Tech, Brooklyn NY), Allyssa Gronseth (NPI 1235012378, unlicensed Behavior Tech, Eagan MN), Amina Hassan (NPI 1093672750, licensed Behavior Tech, Owatonna MN), AND Majeur Renee Tucker (non-provider, age 25, St. Paul MN, campus admissions worker at Concordia University — per BeenVerified). Tucker has no NPI but shares the phone used for 3 provider registrations — possible recruiter or phone contact point.
• PHONE SHARING CLUSTER 2: [redacted] shared by Allison Sanders (NPI 1962379537, unlicensed Behavior Tech, Brooklyn NY, enrolled 10/2025) and Tasha Dahle (NPI 1881556082, unlicensed Behavior Tech, Owatonna MN, enrolled 11/2025). Both enrolled within 1 month of each other.
• PHONE SHARING CLUSTER 3: [redacted] shared by Elizabeth Ongeri (NPI 1891688164, unlicensed individual, Home Health/Community BH) and Safe Bridge LLC (NPI 1255225512, unlicensed org, Community BH/Home Health). Same person likely controls both — individual and entity sharing one phone number.
• BRIGHTER SKIES PSYCHIATRY LLC (NPI 1154955136) phone [redacted] matches Minnesota Registered Agent Services LLC operator phone — significant: a 'psychiatry practice' using the virtual mailbox operator's own phone number
• CONFIRMED EMAILS (BeenVerified, 2026-04-16): [redacted] (Oct 2017-Apr 2025, verified primary); [redacted] (Oct 2023-Nov 2024, verified — active during MN enrollment period); [redacted] (Chestnut Hill College work email — O.M. is employed/affiliated at CHC, not merely a former student); [redacted] (undated personal); [redacted] (RUDY MARTIN's work email at OMART Training domain — confirms his formal operational role in OMART, not just a property co-owner).
• omarttraining.com is a LAPSED domain — last Wayback Machine snapshot April 2018, now unregistered and available for purchase. [redacted] is a defunct email. OMART Training operated 2008-2018 and wound down years before the MN Medicaid enrollments (Sept 2023).
• OMART CORPORATE LINEAGE: OMART Consulting (pre-2008) → OMART Training & Development, Inc. (formed 2008, operational until ~2018) → OMART Women Supporting Women (MN Medicaid entity enrolled 2023). The 'OMART' brand spans 15+ years but the operational training business has been inactive for 5+ years before MN enrollment.
• OMART Training had a real institutional history: Northern Liberties physical facility; contract with Congreso de Latinos Unidos (Aug 2009, 100+ placements); membership in NAEYC, PACCA, DVAEYC, SEPECC; board service at Childspace CCDI and PCC Early Childhood Advisory Board. These are verifiable institutional relationships that establish credibility for the OMART brand — but all predate the MN Medicaid enrollment by 5-15 years.
• O.M. holds a Chestnut Hill College work email ([redacted]) — she is employed or formally affiliated with CHC as of the BeenVerified data collection date. This may explain the 'Dr.' title via an academic track.
• CORRECTION — OMART WSW taxonomy: NOT Case Management. NPPES official record confirms 251V00000X — Voluntary or Charitable. Rarely used taxonomy enabling billing without clinical licensure. Zion HSS is 251B00000X Case Management.
• CORRECTION — OMART WSW authorized official title: President (not Owner). Both Zion HSS and OMART WSW list O.M. as President on official NPPES records.
• OMART WSW mailing address on NPPES is O.M.'S PERSONAL HOME: [O.M.'s residential address, on file with NPPES]. Her home IS the official Medicaid mailing address for this entity.
• Phone numbers: [redacted] (Baltimore MD area code) = authorized official and mailing phone for BOTH entities. [redacted] (Philadelphia PA area code) = OMART WSW practice address phone only — a PA area code on a Minnesota office.
• TWO LinkedIn profiles discovered: (1) /in/womensupportingwomen — CEO, 2,211 followers, Arcadia University, 'O.M.,' active; (2) /in/obioma-martin-93171a30 — Owner OMART Training & Development, 106 connections, dormant, education: Chestnut Hill College BA Child Care Management 2007-2010, Board Member Childspace CCDI 2009-2011
• O.M.'s child care background is GENUINE: Chestnut Hill College BA Child Care Management (2007-2010), Childspace CCDI board service (2009-2011). The OMART Training & Development brand is built on real credentials. The MN Medicaid ghost enrollment is the anomaly, not a fabricated identity.
• O.M. (Zion HSS / OMART WSW) LinkedIn primary URL is '/in/womensupportingwomen' — her personal brand IS 'Women Supporting Women'; uses title 'O.M.' on LinkedIn and in Times Square Today TV feature
• [O.M.'s residential address, on file with NPPES] (O.M.'s home) was transferred FROM Rudy L. Martin TO O.M. on 2022-05-13 — exactly 16 months before MN Medicaid enrollment. ATTOM AVM: $266,204.
• 1433 S Bouvier St, Philadelphia (ZIP 19146) confirmed owned by PATEL SAVAN K + CANAS VASTID M HERRERA via Philadelphia AIS live database. Purchased 2015-09-17 for $368,712. ATTOM AVM: $413,549. Same ZIP as M.S. confirmed home.
• 836 N 3rd St, Philadelphia (OMART's listed business address) — OMART was a TENANT. Premier Estates on North has owned this CMX-2 commercial property since Oct 2014 (purchased for $131,731 from Abriola Liberties Inc). Now worth $852,390.
• Federal courts: ZERO RECAP documents for 'Zion HSS', 'OMART Women Supporting Women', or 'O.M.' as of 2026-04-16. No charges filed. Likely among 120 active MN HSS investigations but no public proceeding yet.
• Six confirmed MN HSS federal criminal cases: Wave 1 (Sept 2025 — Aden/Falade/Adow x2) and Wave 2 (Dec 2025 — Hussein/Jefferson). Wave 3 not yet filed. 2026 MN cases are civil challenges to HSS program termination under Trump/Oz/Mullin.

Investigation Summary

Of 8 suspect providers investigated in depth, 2 OIG exclusion matches proved to be FALSE POSITIVES (different individuals with same names). 2 diagnosticians are verified legitimate. 2 providers (D.M.A., L.T.T.) have real licenses but are using the ghost mailbox for side practices. The most suspicious providers remain: Northstar Psychology (5 taxonomy codes, ghost identity), Zion HSS (double virtual mailbox, no identity), Inner Milestones (brand new, no presence), and the continued Said fraud network connection. The core finding — 76 providers at a $49 mailbox with 72% unlicensed and 5.25x overbilling — remains solid regardless of individual provider statuses. As of 2026-04-16: the O.M. / Zion HSS / OMART WSW investigation has been substantially deepened — Philadelphia property records confirmed via city AIS and ATTOM ([O.M.'s residential address] transferred FROM Rudy L. Martin to O.M. in May 2022, 16 months pre-enrollment; 1433 S Bouvier St owned by S.P. + V.H.C.; OMART was a tenant not owner at 836 N 3rd St). O.M.'s LinkedIn (slug: /in/womensupportingwomen) confirms the 'Women Supporting Women' brand as her personal identity and she actively uses the 'Dr.' title. Zero federal court filings against either entity or O.M. personally as of today — no Wave 3 charges yet. PhilaDox (offline 2026-04-16) remains the primary outstanding research gap for full deed history.
