Come to the free Town Hall sponsored by the Workers' Compensation Action Network in conjunction with The Employers' Fraud Task Force featuring District Attorney's Offices of Los Angeles, Orange County, Riverside and San Bernardino.

Prosecutors will discuss staffing efforts to prosecute workers' compensation fraud, how massive schemes victimize employers and injured workers in Southern California, and offer suggestions on how to recognize workers' comp fraud.

Employers will be able to share their stories of workers compensation fraud and abuse with southern California District Attorneys. Give District Attorney's important information about what employers are experiencing in the field and help prosecutors cut down on waste and abuse.

According to the Orange County District Attorney's Office (OCDA), recent estimates indicate approximately $4 billion in fraudulent workers' compensation activity are filed in California each year. Statistics indicate the vast majority of this loss is associated with provider fraud involving medical providers and other service professionals.

Workers' Compensation Action Network is a broad-based, statewide coalition that has successfully fought for reforms to provide state and local officials more tools to combat workers' compensation fraud to help meet dual goals of stable costs for employers and higher benefits for injured workers. Since 2012, Governor Jerry Brown has signed several pieces of legislation designed to improve system efficiency, reduce conflict and litigation, and stem abuses by service providers. These reforms are delivering higher benefits to California workers while stabilizing employer costs. Despite these reforms, California's system remains the most costly and litigious in the nation and vulnerable to evolving forms of fraud and abuse, particularly in Southern California.
Complimentary lunch will be provided.

Why Crack Down on Workers' Comp Fraud?

Fraud hurts both employers and injured workers. It inflates employer costs, clogs the injured workers' compensation court and administrative systems, delays the resolution of claims, diverts limited system resources, and exploits injured workers who do not receive the medical care needed to property heal from their injuries.
