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
