A 35-year-old Louisiana woman has been arrested and charged with Medicaid fraud after allegedly underreporting her income to qualify for government healthcare benefits. Candace Taylor of Slidell was apprehended Monday following an investigation by the Louisiana Bureau of Investigation, which was initiated after a complaint from the state Health Department. According to authorities, Taylor continued to transfer substantial funds between personal and business accounts from 2021 through 2024, with personal income consistently exceeding Medicaid eligibility thresholds.
