Between January 2001 and February 2003, Parungao claimed she made more than 18,000 home health visits. Parungao purported to work every single day during this time period, including every weekend, holiday, averaging 20 visits per day. Parungao operated in cash, and did not have a bank account or any property in her name.

Payments totaling more than$10,00 were systematically divided into two or more checks, with each check written for less than $10,000.
