NY man, who is believed to be of Haitian parentage, on most-wanted list for health care fraud

Authorities say a Long Island businessman who's accused of bilking Medicaid of $10.7 million has made the nation's most-wanted list for health care fraud.

The Daily News reports that Etienne Allonce is charged with helping to steal patient information from nursing homes in Queens and Brooklyn and then using it to create fake Medicaid bills.

The 46-year-old Westbury resident ran a medical equipment company out of Hicksville, Long Island.

It says his name was added to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' most-wanted fugitives list last month.

He was indicted in 2007 on health care fraud and other charges. The health department says it's believed he has fled to Haiti.

It was not immediately known if he had a lawyer.
