Revolution Youth, Inc., the operator of Eden Valley mental health clinic in Burlington, Vermont, has agreed to pay $200,000 to the State of Vermont to settle allegations of Medicaid fraud. The settlement follows an investigation by the Attorney General’s Medicaid Fraud and Residential Abuse Unit (MFRAU).
The investigation found that in February 2025, Savannah Lord, Vice President and Clinical Director at Revolution Youth, submitted more than 150 false records to the Department of Vermont Health Access. These records were either materially altered or fabricated and related to Medicaid claims that had already been paid. Additionally, between May 2022 and December 2024, at least 250 false Medicaid claims were submitted for services that did not meet state documentation standards.
Attorney General Charity Clark stated: “Vermont depends on every health care dollar to ensure vital care for the most vulnerable members of our communities. Mental health resources for the youth of our community are particularly crucial. Those who fraudulently claim Medicaid payments deplete these shared resources, harming the people who rely on them.”
The settlement highlights the importance of mental health providers in Vermont’s Medicaid program. A copy of the settlement is available on the Attorney General’s website.
The MFRAU receives a majority of its funding from federal sources through a grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services for fiscal year 2026, with additional support from state funds.
