“The 5Cs to Taking a Bulletproof Injured Worker Recorded Statement”
The Bureau of Workers’ Compensation (BWC) became suspicious of the man’s medical reports and, suspecting fraud, notified the Special Investigation Department (SID).
SID exercised a search warrant of the man’s business and found evidence he altered medical reports used by the BWC and the Ohio Industrial Commission (IC) to determine the percent of permanent partial (%PP) awards (also known as C-92 awards).
BWC’s %PP compensation is available to injured workers with permanent injuries to a body part caused by a work-related accident or an occupational disease. (workersxzcompxzkit)
Investigators found the man inflated percentages submitted by medical providers and/or embellished medical conditions within the final report in an attempt to raise percentage PP awards and ultimately increase his business.
