Both the teacher and this shame 'doctor' need to be prosecuted for fraud.
I would like to see the Walker admin face this sick pay fraud head on. It wouldn’t be that difficult to put an end to it. First of all, most of the teachers and any other state workers who would try to collect sick pay for picketing, belong to an HMO, which means they have a primary care physician. The first step in the process should be to compare the name of the doctor on the “excuse” to that of the primary care physician. If they differ, then the teacher/worker needs to be asked why they didn’t see their own doctor. And, they would need to show proof of payment to the non-plan doctor for the “visit” that generated the excuse.
