    Insurance Claims Investigation vs. Insurance Fraud Claims Investigation

    With the approval of IPIU Senior Management in London and the United States, I would like to create a forum containing actual questionnaires and investigative tools that would assist the IPIU member investigator in assignments they may receive relative to insurance and fraud claims investigation.

    An example of would be a Workers Compensation checklist of fraud indicators. Secondly, a questionnaire and tool most widely used among insurance adjusters and SIU insurance investigators is the Fraud Abuse Indicator Checklist and a list of guidelines for handling suspected fraud/abuse claims on property and casualty assignments.

    Checklist
    Workers Compensation Fraud Indicators

    Note to adjuster and investigator: Any single indicator or group of indicators does not establish fraudulent activity. Their presence indicates the need for further investigation including running a CLUE report. Required am and pm activity checks/drive by's by SIU are suggested prior to assigning to SIU for surveillance.

    1. Employee planning or in process of plant shutdown
    2. Employer cutting back hours or laying off people
    3. Employer terminated employee
    4. Employer notified employee of poor performance, tardiness
    5. Disgruntled injured worker, soon to retire
    6. Injured worker is a seasonal worker
    7. Injured worker took unexplained, or excessive time off prior to claimed injury.
    8. Injured worker is a new employee
    9. Injured worker experiencing financial difficulty
    10. Injured worker shows history of reporting an injury that is "subjective in nature" meaning, a soft tissue injury. no visible sign.
    11. Injured worker did not report the injury immediately
    12. No witnesses to injury
    13. The injury is reported first thing Monday morning or late Friday
    14. Injury occurred in an area not approved for work, or does not usually work in.
    15. Injured worker is never home when called by adjuster or investigator. Comments made by spouse or roommate indicates that worker is employed elsewhere, or the spouse or roommate always says, call back in one hour.

    The 6 Key Indicators of Workers Compensation Fraud

    Note: If you have two or more indicators present, submit to SIU immediately.

    1. No witnesses
    2. Claim history found in CLUE
    3. Conflicting statement(s)
    4. Medical TX and RX appointment no show
    5. Release to work by treating. No restrictions. No followup
    6. Attorney letter is submitted immediately. Lost time demand.

    Greetings John, it's nice to see you as always. I love the suggestion concerning the opening of a forum dealing specifically in Insurance Claims Investigation vs. Insurance Fraud Claims Investigation

    I don't think they'll have it in the public forums though, since it's going to have sensative infomation, did you look in the higher forums "Level 3, Level 4 etc." to see if one hasen't already been created.

    Hope someone comes by and shed some light on this since it's one of your chosen field, This field is in my top list.

    Have a great day.

    Smile New members, Old Idea

    Dear All,
    I had the idea of having a special forum "for women only". (No, this is not for viewing anything lewd) but I have issues and I am sure others do about investigations that pertain strictly to women. I can think of a few..like why I thought of this).
    Anyone interested????

    Tech Support,

    Would it be possible to get an entire forum dedicated to Executive Protection. As this is an rapidly expanding field in the world of Private Investigations, I feel it may warrant some in depth discussion. First to guide those interested in pursuing this field, and second to dispel many of the myths surrounding it. Anyhow, just my two cents.

    Supporting our IPIU member Troops!

    I do have a small idea to see if it may be possible to post/create.
    I was thinking of a thread to support our IPIU troops whether active or reservist. I guess if they are potentially leaving for the weekend or a longer period of time we could have them place their posts in that thread and we be able to give them support.
    Maybe we can allow this thread to be at a level 1 so our potential new members can view our entries and support. We can create the general thread and the individual main topics by branch of the military one branch for both active and reserve. This is just a thought please do let me know if it is good idea in order to be able and create.
    Thanks,
    O.A.C.V. Sr.

    In my reading of the forums I noticed many different discussions, in different forums, about guns, best weapons for Pi, self protection, conceal carry etc... It seems that this topic is of interest to many members.

    It would be easier, I think, to have all that in one place only.

    Re: SUGGESTION BOX: Post any ideas here!

    I have a few Sugestions for the forum.

    1. A classifid or wanted section where members at all levels can post either selling or looking for investigative resourses and books.

    2. A forum for transgendered members. So they can share stores and suport each other.

    3. A java based chat room so that we might meet others and chat online. This could even be used as a means of training or teaching others.

    4. A select group of free ebooks open to the level one members.

    Childrens forum or young investigators club.

    Recently I found a book I read as a child that sparked my intrest in becoming a pi. It brought to mind after rereading it that it might be a good idea to start a group for younger investigators. This forum could be a level one access and include sections by ages such as 7-9, 10-12, 13-15, 16-18.

    With topics that range from basic deduction skills to codes, and games ment to teach about what we do. It could also be used as a means to premote problem solving skills and ways to deal with bullys and crimes at an early age. Ways to teach them that they can help prevent crimes at any age.

    Study group

    After reading the sop. I think it would be wise to have a study group forum with sub forums based on each chapter of the sop. Then under each, people can post questions, discussions. This will and can help others digest the vast amount of information supplied. This would also allow the subject matter to be placed into a practical format that for some people increases their ability to understand the material. It would also allow the review of each chapter to be expanded vastly.

    Re: SUGGESTION BOX: Post any ideas here!

    Main forum name Operations Manual Study Group

    Sub Forum Chapter 1: Case Assignments
    A different sub forum would be used for each chapter.
    Thread one: Review questions.
    More advanced review questions can be posted hear to be answered and discussed by members.
    Thread two: chapter discussion.
    This allows members to post discussion about the chapter.
    Thread three: Member questions about chapter This is a place for members who are confused about the chapter materials and need assistance.
    Thread four: practical exercises This is where worksheets and homework could be placed for an active participation in learning. Such as scenarios, reports writing from provided notes, and other ideas.

    This is the setup I was thinking about. hope it helps.

    SUGGESTION BOX: Post any ideas here!

    I had an idea some time ago, and it was recommended that I post it here in the Suggestion Box.

    Has anyone connected with IPIU ever thought of having "Guest/Honorary Members" for a day? We could contact famous (or infamous) individuals' in our industry; fugitive recovery, investigators, and other agents as well, including police officers.

    We could offer them a sort of "guest pass" for a week with a pseudonym, that would allow them (or an agent on their behalf,) to anonymously browse around the forums to check us out and see if this is something they would be interested in doing. They could perhaps do this on a volunteer basis, (or if IPIU were to charge an additional fee for their members - we could consider a donation to the guests' favorite charity.)

    It would take quite a bit of work, but could prove to be quite interesting, certainly fun, and most importantly educational. ( I can see some press-release possibilities here.)

    If the guest would perhaps agree to accept questions (questions submitted and chosen ahead of time, of course) - these questions could be answered by the Guest/Honorary Member and posted here in the forums. I would suggest these postings should only be accessible or viewable by a specific Level chosen by the administrative staff.

    Perhaps these postings or "question and answer threads" should be considered to be viewable only by persons who have already chosen a membership or even using a special passcode - as we do in other specific areas of the forums.

    Any thoughts or ideas from anyone else?

    Imagine if we could do this once per month? How about as a summer, fall or winter "series"? I personally would be agreeable to paying an additional fee to IPIU to be included in these question and answer threads or to be allowed to read their posts.

    I have some more ideas and suggestions for doing this as I'm sure others will when they take a moment to read this post.

    Anybody?

    Thoughts?

    Re: SUGGESTION BOX: Post any ideas here!

    I suggest that IPIU offer some new badge styles.

    Like the following as an example :



    I understand that some star badges may be illegal in some states no matter what they state, but it would be wonderful to have more options.

    The ribbon background would be black with white text.The Badge number can go underneath the 2nd ribbon.

    Re: Technical Support Please

    Ms. Donna suggested that I post my questions here. I'm interested in becoming a "Carrier", is this something that is possible through IPIU?
    Do we have anything that might pay as well? If I'm way off tract, I believe you can help. Aj

    Re: SUGGESTION BOX: Post any ideas here!

    Heres some suggestions...

    Certifications

    There should be a very simple breakdown of every certification that you can get here. For example, if you purchase the "Finders Fee" book you can get a certificate of completion issued in Advanced Missing Persons Specialties. If you do a anti-piracy case you can get certified as a Anti-Piracy Specialist. Take this test and get certified in this....

    Someone new like me wants every certificate I can get and as much knowledge as possible. Not only does it look great on a resume but also on my website

    Logo

    Every member should have access to be able to download the IPIU logo for there website, fax cover sheet, letterhead etc. It should be a free download. Without being a paid member they do not have access to download the file. If they leave the site then they must remove the logo. Simple. It is great ( GREAT ) publicity for IPIU.

    Store

    So Im a bit crazy, but there should be a IPIU store for coffee mugs, t-shirts, polo shirts, mouse pads etc. Without getting crazy and having to worry about merchant accts, shipping etc., set up a simple Cafe Press store. It would take me, or you, 15 minutes to set up and I can guarantee you with 1 hour you would have a sale. Not only could IPIU make a ton of money but if you set up an affiliate program then all IPIU members could also promote the store and make a small percentage. With 40,000 + members there is huge potential there ; )

    Simplify

    I have been doing internet marketing and building websites for over 10 years. One rule I have is to make every website "stupid-proof". You need to make it very very simple. The way it is set up now is very confusing and extremely overwhelming. Too much information in each post with too many links pointing all over.

    Thats all I have for now ; )
    I really like the suggestions
    One I would like to add is a section for social bookmarking so we can all bookmark each others web sites. Like in Digg and Mixx etc. Also a place for link exchanges. SEO stuff.

    Re: SUGGESTION BOX: Post any ideas here!

    OK now that Im on a roll...

    Downloads
    There should be one forum called "Downloads" which has all the ebooks, test, manuals etc all in one place with a brief description of what it is.

    Chat Room
    There should be a live chat room added to the site. It will increase member activity as well as relieve some burden of having admins have to answer emails. There are planty of free chat room that can be added to this site and there should be a direct link on the main member page after logging in that all members have access to.

    Member Photos
    Again to create more user activity then what there is, there should be a forum for users to add their pic if they want so other members can talk on a more personal level

    Re: SUGGESTION BOX: Post any ideas here!

    As a matter of history, IPIU has had no interest in promoting itself to the public as a web site. That is not to say this policy will remain in the "dark ages". It is my belief that changes are on the way to come. I have seen the "discussions" among the board members. The business of IPIU, since 1989, has been that of a non-labor union of private investigators whose primary resource for membership was based on a referral basis. In February of 2000, some of our benefits were made available to members on the Internet instead of through the postal mail and telephones. But our business is not an internet business. That said, I believe we are close to making some of the changes you mention, but there are some back-end projects that must be fulfilled before we implement those types of changes. Alexa also gives a snap-shot of how many visitors we get, all with basically no overt advertising or promotion. We have been one of the best kept trade secrets in the world for 20 years. Those who find us, those who were referred to us, have a common view that they have been looking for an organization like IPIU for a very long time.

    Again, thank you for your observation and your offer.

    Cheers,
    Greetings Admin and members, nice to see you all here enjoying the IPIU forum. I am greatfull for all the tips and guidance from you all.

    I personally think that this last post by Admin should be added to the "{COE}" somewhere and new and seasoned members should be asked to read/re-read its contents as it answer some of the questions concerning this site.

    Thanks for sharing this information.

    Have a great day.

    Re: SUGGESTION BOX: Post any ideas here!

    Was wondering - create a Directory called By States, then within that Directory have folders listed by state names. So a person can discuss private investigation work within that state if they are looking to recruit others or suggestions/ideas on a case they may be working at the time. A way of communicating with other PI's within their state.

    Re: SUGGESTION BOX: Post any ideas here!

    Would like to see a Directory created called "Conferences" either nationally or within each State. This way we would be able to host events and/or training sessions within our own state. I know I for one would enjoy meeting other members.

    Re: SUGGESTION BOX: Post any ideas here!

    Just a suggestion: Have a weekly/bi-weekly/monthly conference call to hear about the different options one can learn using IPIU. Example: Benefits to having a corporation, or applying for companies like Merlin/IRBSearch, applying for a credit card etc...

    Would like to also see a IPIU conference in my home state.

    I would like to see a section for the many type of contracts (templates) that users make available. I know about the home depot office template documents but would like to see specific contract template section added for all of us to share with each other.

    Thank you, Jeffrey, for your suggestion. I have added it on Page 1, Post 1.

    For sample retainers, corporate members who have access to the corporation owners forums can see the sample retainers that are used. If you cannot locate the, just post your request in your official corporation topic.

    Re: One of the best Private Investigator websites I have see in the last month!

    Is it possible to have a marker in the early instructions to remind those that wish to post anything that correct spelling and punctuation would be a great help in reading these?? I find it somewhat disconcerting that some wish to be a "Professional" with such poor spelling and sentence structure. If that is an example of their communication skills they exhibit to their clients, they will not appear as the "Professional" they wish to project.
