Dubious Claims

California, Florida, Texas, New York and Michigan generate almost half of all suspicious claims to property/casualty insurance companies, a new report says. These states account for 49 percent of all “questionable claims” as tabulated by the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB). Questionable claims are those claims that NICB-member insurance companies refer to NICB for closer review and investigation based upon one or more indicators of possible fraud. NICB just released its three-year analysis of questionable claims in the United States from Jan. 1, 2008, through Dec. 31, 2010.
