A Video Explaining the Three Major Responses to Insurance Fraud
\\n\\nInsurers are faced with three major types of insurance fraud:
\\nFraud in the inception of a policy of insurance.
\\nFraud in the presentation of a claim by the insured.
\\nFraud in the presentation of a claim by a third party claimant.
\\nFraud in the Inception
\\nThe insured misrepresents or conceals facts material to the decision of the insurer to insure or not insure the prospective insured. This is a situation where the person seeking insurance deceives the insurer about the risks it is being asked to take.
\\nIf the insured lies in the application for insurance about a matter that would have, had the truth been known, affected the decision of the insurer, the insurer may have the right to rescind the policy, determine it never existed, return the premium, and deny the claim presented by the insured;
\\nFraud (By the Insured) In the Presentation of The Claim.
\\nThe insured lies about a fact material to the decision of the insurer to pay or not pay a claim. The insurer faced with a fraudulently presented claim can deny the claim in accordance with the policy provisions or declare the policy void and deny the claim; and
\\nFraud in the Presentation of a Claim by a Claimant Against the Insured.
\\nIn these cases, the third party claimant makes a false and fraudulent claim against the insured.
\\nIn all three categories of insurance fraud the insurer is faced with the same challenges:
\\nhow to thoroughly investigate fraud and
\\nhow to prove that the fraud is a valid ground for denying a claim.
