A new Insurance Fraud Unit has begun its work to educate the public about insurance fraud, investigate suspected fraud and prosecute offenders.
Insurance fraud is a growing problem, and everyone pays for it.
A specialized unit to fight insurance fraud will help protect consumers. The new insurance fraud unit is starting its work with a comprehensive educational program, including seminars and educational materials. A lot of insurance fraud is targeted at senior citizens, so we'll develop education programs especially geared toward senior citizens. The new unit will also investigate and prosecute acts of insurance fraud. The unit is staffed with a prosecutor, investigator, and a secretary.
