A 15-year-old victim of former Michigan State University sports doctor Larry Nassar testified Monday in a sentencing hearing that MSU continues to bill her mother for appointments that involved sexual assault.
"I am possibly the last child you will ever assault," said Emma Ann Miller, who knew Nassar her whole life, according to Kim Kozlowski of The Detroit News. "MSU Sports Medicine charged me for those appointments. My mom is still being billed for those appointments where I was sexually assaulted."
Invoices come even though MSU fired Nassar more than 16 months ago amid widespread sexual abuse allegations.
It's a mistake and no patients need to pay for seeing Nassar, the university says.
Emma Ann Miller said she began seeing Nassar when she was 10 for a back injury, The News reports. She saw him for the last time in August 2016, just a month before he was fired by MSU.
MSU spokesman Jason Cody tells The News: "This has been passed on to the people who handle that to address, and I can tell you that patients of former MSU physician Larry Nassar will not be billed."
Another bureaucratic embarrassment for the university is disclosed by a reporter for The State News:
The MSU College of Osteopathic Medicine included Larry Nassar on a list of past college award recipients sent out Friday.

The list says it was last updated in December 2017 - the same month Nassar was sentenced to 60 years on federal child pornography charges. @thesnews pic.twitter.com/NYGcr9t2wV
