A Pittsburgh resident has pleaded guilty in federal court to health care fraud. Kelley Oliver-Hollis, 61, admitted guilt before United States District Judge William S. Stickman IV. Acting United States Attorney Troy Rivetti announced the plea.
Oliver-Hollis also accepted responsibility for 39 other charges from a Superseding Indictment issued in August 2025. These include making false statements related to health care matters, concealing material facts about health care, money laundering, and misuse of Social Security benefits by a representative payee.
According to information presented in court, Oliver-Hollis operated Serenitycare LLC in Penn Hills as an enrolled Medicaid provider under Pennsylvania’s Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) Waiver Program. The program required her to house and provide services for several intellectually disabled adults, including ensuring adequate staffing at the homes. Between 2018 and 2023, records showed that Oliver-Hollis did not meet staffing requirements but still submitted weekly claims falsely stating proper staffing levels. The homes she managed were also cited multiple times for unsanitary and unsafe conditions.
Sentencing is set for February 10, 2026. The law allows for a maximum sentence of up to ten years in prison, a fine of up to $250,000, or both. The actual sentence will depend on the seriousness of the offense and any prior criminal history.
Assistant United States Attorneys Gregory C. Melucci and Brendan J. McKenna are prosecuting the case.
The investigation was conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General, Allegheny County District Attorney’s Office, Department of Health and Human Services-Office of Inspector General, Internal Revenue Service-Criminal Investigation, Social Security Administration-Office of the Inspector General, and U.S. Department of Labor-Office of Inspector General.
