Workers’ Compensation Fraud in New York – What Injured NY Workers Should Look Out For

Have you been struggling with a New York workers’ comp claim? Does it seem like every step of the way somebody is suspicious of your claim? Does it seem like your employer and their insurance company don’t really believe that you have a legitimate on-the-job injury?

For many workers injured in New York, this is the sad reality. The NY workers’ comp process can feel very adversarial, as workers have to fight so hard to get the benefits they deserve after a work related illness or injury. What most people don’t realize, however, is that it isn’t injured workers out there committing all the cases of workers’ comp fraud – it’s everyone else!

According to one workers’ comp fraud task force investigator, less than 10 percent of all workers’ comp cases are committed by workers. All the rest – over 90 percent – are committed by everyone else!

“Five Deadly Sins that Can Derail Your New York Workers Compensation Case”

If you have filed a workers’ comp claim or are going to file one, this is what you should look out for to make sure that YOU are not a victim of workers’ comp fraud:

Employers: Did your employer submit your paperwork like they should have? Was it accurate?
Insurance adjusters: did they file your paperwork accurately? Are they trying to minimize your injury so you receive less money?
Doctors: is the doctor minimizing your injuries to keep the insurance company happy? Are they billing the insurance company for appointments or procedures that you never had? Are they sending you back to work too soon to save the insurance company money?
Bill review companies: are they skating on their responsibilities? Are they letting signs of fraud slip through?
