Elexis Braswell, the former owner of Tender Loving Care, also known as Elizabeth Home Care, in Shelby County, Tennessee, has been arrested several months after being indicted by a grand jury, charging her with theft of property and fraud, according to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.
The indictment and arrest come after an investigation by special agents with the Medicaid Fraud Control Division of the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.
In June 2022, TBI’s MFCD special agents received a fraud referral from the TennCare Office of Program Integrity, alleging overbilling. During the course of the investigation, agents developed information that from July 2018 through August 2021, Braswell, the then-operator of the agency, knowingly billed TennCare for home healthcare related services for patients who were receiving treatment in area hospitals, which resulted in the loss of thousands of dollars to Tennessee.
In April 2025, a Shelby County Grand Jury returned an indictment charging Braswell for her alleged heinous acts. On Oct. 14, she was apprehended and booked in the Shelby County Jail on a $20,000 bond.
