Report Fraud

LUBA puts a high priority on preventing workers’ compensation fraud, which costs the industry billions of dollars each year and affects everyone involved – insurers, policyholders and providers.

There are numerous ways fraud can be committed:

Claimant Fraud

  • Malingering or exaggeration of symptoms
  • Working while allegedly disabled and not reporting income
  • Claiming a job-related injury that never occurred
  • Claiming a non-work related injury as a work-related injury
  • Falsifying mileage reports

Employer Fraud

  • Underreporting payroll or misclassifying employees for lower insurance premiums
  • Deducting premium dollars from employee wages
  • Employer knowingly fails to have necessary workers' compensation coverage

Medical/Health-Care Provider Fraud

  • Providing unnecessary testing or treatment of injured workers to reap financial benefit
  • Billing for services or treatment never performed
  • Billing the workers' compensation insurer and the workers' health insurer for the same services
