WAUKEE, Iowa (AP) - The Iowa Board of Social Work says a social worker from Waukee billed a school district for services he didn’t provide.

The Des Moines Register reports (https://dmreg.co/1mk7JlJ ) that in documents released last week, the licensing board said school staff members reported that the social worker would return students early from therapy sessions and was frequently absent during the school day.

The reports also say the worker’s billing records showed multiple instances where he either billed for more than one session for the same client on the same day, multiple sessions at the same time or during times when he was in supervision or at meetings.

The documents say the social worker resigned from his position and that his employer reimbursed the school district and insurance companies for improper charges.
