Causation Investigation & Fraud Prevention

Causation Investigation
Our Causation specialists are the post-injury fact finders who use occupational and non-occupational risk factors to help medical providers determine whether an injury is work related. We’re one of few workers’ compensation carriers who do this work – and it means millions in loss avoidance on average each year. Learn more here.

Fraud Detection & Prevention
We aggressively investigate workers’ compensation fraud by working closely with the National Insurance Crime Bureau, outside investigative agencies and our in-house Investigative Services Unit (ISU). While fraud occurs in a relatively small percentage of claims, the expense can have a devastating impact for employers.

If you suspect fraudulent activity, call toll-free 800-944-FRAUD (3728) or email [email protected]. Calls are confidential and can be made anonymously.
