Here’s a Tip: Work Comp Fraud Can Cost Millions
Work comp fraud isn’t just someone faking an injury. It also includes medical providers authorizing and billing excessive or uncompleted medical services, or employers falsifying payroll records to lower premiums.
To identify these crimes, Montana State Fund manages a confidential Fraud Tip Hotline 888-682-7463 (888 MT Crime). Callers can remain anonymous.
For 25 years these “tips” have allowed our fraud unit to work closely with the Montana Department of Justice to investigate and prosecute fraudulent claims and employer misconduct. This partnership has resulted in millions of dollars in savings for our policyholders.
If you suspect any type of fraud call our hotline or visit our website to learn more about the signs of work comp fraud.
