What is worker’s compensation and personal injury fraud?

Worker’s Compensation & Personal Injury Fraud occurs when an individual willingly makes a false statement in order to obtain a benefit from their employer, or an insurance company. Worker’s Compensation Fraud also occurs when an individual or an entity prevents a claimant from receiving a Worker’s Compensation benefit they are entitled to.

What do these investigations entail?

An investigation for this circumstance involves obtaining evidence in order to determine one of the following:

  • The Claimant Falsified The Claim

    Our investigator will conduct an investigation in order to provide you with supporting evidence that shows the claimant omitted information or provided false information on their Worker’s compensation claim.

  • The Claimant Was Wrongfully Denied Benefits

    Our investigator will conduct an investigation in order to obtain evidence that shows a pattern of wrongful denial of worker’s compensation, or a history of worker’s compensation fraud.

When Should You Contact an Expert?

Insurance Fraud accounts for approximately $80 billion dollars in annual losses to insurance companies, that’s BILLION with a B or $80,000,000,000. If that wasn’t already bad enough, there are many individuals who believe it is ok to commit Insurance Fraud because they see it as a victimless crime to a faceless insurance company. But as we already know, there is a victim, and that victim ends up paying for this “victimless crime”

As an insurance company, it is very important for you to ensure you are only paying out valid claims because these losses can quickly stack up. We always recommend hiring a private investigator the moment you suspect an individual is falsifying or exaggerating a claim. The Hargett Agency, LLC will dispatch a surveillance specialist, or multiple specialists to document actual claimant activity and provide you with the evidence you need to mitigate your losses.

Conducting an investigation will provide you with definitive evidence supporting your case in order to prevent you from paying out fraudulent worker’s compensation claims.
