Columbia Qwik-Med pharmacist accused of giving customers extra pills, submitting fraudulent claims

A Lancaster County pharmacist was charged last week after investigators say he gave customers extra pills and submitted fraudulent pharmacy claims.

Richard Boahene, 40, is the owner of Qwik-Med Pharmacy in Columbia. A criminal complaint alleges he gave extra pills and changed the doctor's prescription.

Investigators also said he got money from medical assistance for prescriptions that were not received by the patients.
