A man accused of using the names of ANU students in more than 50 fraudulent health insurance claims, and taking $12,000 in the alleged scam, will plead not guilty to the charges. Borong Liu, 28, allegedly lodged fake receipts for appointments at four Canberra medical centres to get the money, and at times would pretend to be a woman when following up claims with insurer Allianz Global Assistance on the phone, according to documents previously tendered to court. Police say the Cook man made 58 fraudulent claims between March 2013 and December 2014. He faces court on 154 charges of allegedly using a fake medical receipt to dishonestly gain money. Mr Liu appeared briefly in the ACT Magistrates Court on Thursday where his lawyer Michael Kukulies-Smith indicated the man would plead not guilty to all 154 charges. The court registrar continued the man’s bail and set the case down for mention on September 14.
