    Clearwater, FL– On Feb. 7, 2008, Tarpon Springs Police Officer Susan Gorman turned herself in at the Pinellas County Jail pursuant to a warrant for her arrest for withholding information from a practitioner.

    In August 2007, the Tarpon Springs Police Department requested that the Florida Department of Law Enforcement investigate allegations of a prescription violation. The five month investigation revealed that Officer Gorman visited several doctors in order to unlawfully obtain multiple prescriptions for painkillers within a 30 day period while withholding information from doctors that she had already had multiple prescriptions filled. The practice, commonly known as “doctor shopping”, is a third degree felony in Florida, punishable by as much as five years in prison and a fine of up to $5,000.

    Gorman made visits to five different doctors between April and August 2007 and obtained prescriptions for Hydrocondone and Oxycodone which totaled approximately 600 pills.

    Gorman was released on a $5,000 bond. She is presently on unpaid administrative leave. The Office of the State Attorney Sixth Judicial Circuit will be prosecuting the case.

    This isnt even the same situation. Doctor shopping is when you go to 5 docs for the same aliment and receive 5 scripts for the same aliment. try reading what you post before you post it and reference it.

    i did read it but you are obviously not smart enough to figure out, that it is prescription fraud. just what he was talking about prescription fraud, double dipping is prescription fraud. i didnt know i had to spell it out for you. next time i will try to get a third grader to look things up for me so you understand.
