If this is true…what a couple of dirt bags.
Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott today charged an Austin company with selling fraudulent discount health card plans to pregnant women who lacked maternity insurance.According to court documents, the defendants, Brian McDonald and Aaron Bouren, and their company, AHCO Direct, LLC, preyed on uninsured pregnant women’s fears about prenatal care and delivery costs by selling them a health discount card that promised to cover up to 60% of maternity-related costs. More than 140 consumers complained to the Office of the Attorney General (OAG) and the Better Business Bureau that the defendants’ “MaternityCard” charged high fees but provided no health care discounts or benefits.
