Workers Compensation fraud is a growth industry, as more claims are accepted with less investigation by statutory bodies.
The cost of WorkCover fraud, Workers' Compensation
claim fraud, Workers Compensation insurance fraud (WorkCover, which is
now changing name to Worksafe), Comcare fraud, self insured private
insurance fraud, may be initially hidden from the business. You may see
it as 'someone else' paying a person, insurance paying a person, who is
claiming/feigning an illness or injury. This is wrong.
The business is being robbed, but you don't know it,
yet; you will pay for it with future premiums. If you have a suspicion,
act. Experienced Workers Compensation private investigators, Workers
Compensation private detectives, including former police and government
agents, available for Workers Compensation surveillance investigations, background check, or factual investigations, WorkCover
claim fraud suspicion investigations. You suspect, we investigate.
When a WorkCover (Worksafe, Comcare) claim, a Workers Compensation claim, is made, the Workers Compensation claim process commences. If accepted, the insurance premium of the company, or business, rises as the costs associated with paying, and managing, a claim are passed on.
The injured person then becomes the WorkCover,
Workers Compensation, Comcare, customer, or client, once the claim is
accepted, as workers compensation management moves to the rehabilitation
coordinator role, and intends to manage the injured claimant back into
employment. Getting an fraud investigation of the insurer at this time
can seem impossible.
A return to work action with one of four objectives,
to return them to same job, same employer, or same job different
employer, or different job same employer, different job different
employer. Achieving one of these goals is the objective, once the claim
is accepted. In the longer term there is the civil claim for pain,
suffering, and loss of capacity, which will also add to the business
insurance cost, and give it a history.
The more that is paid out for time off work, injury claim, medical expenses, modifications to houses, vehicles, carers, and civil
damages claims, the greater the cost of insurance for the business,
because it now has a history, rather than being classified as 'average'.
The level of Government enforcement seems to be falling, whilst the PR
spin for the few they do seems to be rising, along with the number of
suspect claims investigations that are funded privately (private
investigation).
When you suspect Workcover claim fraud, Workers'Compensation claim fraud, Worksafe fraud, Comcare fraud, a Workers
compensation private investigator, Workers Compensation private
detective, is there to conduct the Workers Compensation surveillance,
Workers Compensation fraud investigation, to review the Workers
Compensation investigation process of the business, to gather the
evidence. Probably the faster growing area of Workcover claim
investigation relates to psychological injury claims; this is also proving to be the most expensive area. A psychological injury is the new back injury.
The business Workers Compensation insurance premium
is going to increase based on your claims history. In the short term it
will go up based on the claims for paid days off and associated costs,
including medical costs, plus a reduction in output for the business; in
the longer term it will go up based on successful civil claims for
compensation against the business (e.g. through the courts), which takes
years.
This means less profits for the business, less
money to pay wages, a lower ability to see out the hard times and a
less viable company. It can place everyone's employment at risk.
Where a false claim is suspected the time to start protecting the business is now. Some indications include: 1. A claim where rumour has it the actual injury occurred elsewhere (drunk hi-jinks, weekend football, followed by a 'slip' no one saw at work). 2. A refusal to participate in 'light duties', or a return to work program. 3. Signs of doctor shopping. 4. Information received that the person is undertaking work, or sporting activities, whilst totally incapacitated. 5. Information about home renovations or other activities. 6. If a WorkCover claim is rejected, but the former employee still launches a civil action, claiming injury.

choices include to try and get the insurer to investigate, and wait, and

investigation, private Workers Compensation investigation. This is more
expensive but faster, and gives you more control. Generally, a suspected

and require proof of fraud before progressing to actually commence
their own investigation (in some cases Government policy has tied their
hands, to avoid bad publicity). The Workers compensation investigation
