Medical Practice Business Manager Jamie Grant Accused of Stealing Over $834K from Nephrology Associates

Jamie Grant, 45, served as the business manager at Nephrology Associates of Ohio, a medical practice, starting in 2019. She allegedly stole over $834,000 through misappropriation over several years, beginning early in her employment, using the funds for personal family luxuries rather than charitable purposes.[1]

Practice leaders reported concerns to the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office in July 2025, prompting an investigation that uncovered the theft. Grant was indicted on one count of aggravated theft over $750,000, turned herself in, and was held at Montgomery County Jail, with a court appearance scheduled for December 16; Sheriff Rob Streck noted the selfish motives. Practice owners should implement regular financial audits, segregate duties, and monitor for early discrepancies to prevent trusted managers from long-term embezzlement.[1]

How to Protect Your Medical Practice

  • Separate financial duties so no single person can post a payment, issue an adjustment, and prepare the bank deposit.
  • Have the owner or an outside bookkeeper reconcile bank statements against posted collections every month — never the person who handles the money.
  • Review a report of all write-offs, adjustments, and voided claims by user each week and require a written reason for anything unusual.
  • Monitor refunds, credit balances, and new vendors or payroll changes, and require owner approval before funds leave the practice.
  • Layer in continuous monitoring like Dolos so anomalies are flagged the day they happen instead of years later during an audit.
