Licensee Joshua H. Cho seeks early end to three-year probation after 2017 insurance-fraud case
Summary
Dr. Joshua Han Cho, whose license was revoked in 2018 after a conviction for insurance fraud and reinstated on probation in 2022, told the Board of Chiropractic Examiners he has completed required coursework and community service and asked for early termination; the board took the petition under submission.
Dr. Joshua Han Cho appeared before the Board of Chiropractic Examiners on April 18 seeking early termination of a three-year probation imposed after his 2017 conviction for insurance fraud and a subsequent 2018 revocation and 2022 reinstatement.
Deputy Attorney General Leslie Brass summarized the board record: Cho—s license was revoked in 2018 after an administrative law judge sustained charges including insurance fraud and dishonest conduct; Cho later petitioned successfully for reinstatement on probation effective Oct. 12, 2022. Brass said Cho—s quarterly reports and required monitoring had been submitted on time and that he had completed the required examinations and ethics coursework.
Cho told the board he underwent rehabilitation, volunteered in missions and community service, and joined professional and civic organizations. He said he did not ask for early termination out of impatience but to demonstrate that he had earned the public—s trust and to expand community mentorship and mission work.
Board members questioned Cho about cost recovery, the status of his criminal conviction (Cho said it had been dismissed before reinstatement), the reasons he sought early termination and how he planned to avoid repetition of past misconduct. Brass and Cho acknowledged the board must determine whether Cho proved by clear and convincing evidence his entitlement to early termination. The board took the matter under submission; no on-the-record vote was recorded.
