McALLEN, Texas (AP) – A former city official in South Texas has been sentenced to nearly two years in prison for his role in a fraudulent $1.7 million health care scheme. Forty-eight-year-old Oscar Elizondo was sentenced Wednesday after pleading guilty last year to conspiracy to commit health care fraud. Elizondo is a former city commissioner in Pharr who conspired with the owner of a pharmacy to submit more than $1.7 million in fraudulent claims to Blue Cross Blue Shield.
