Fraud Detection and Quality Control
Description and Importance
Spots invalid claims (e.g., duplicates, forgeries) to protect funds. Increasingly AI-driven; fraud costs billions annually.
Step-by-Step Process
Screening: AI scans for patterns (e.g., identical docs across claims).
Flagging: Alert on anomalies (e.g., geolocation mismatches).
Investigation: Manual deep dives or hire PIs for suspicions.
Audits: Random 5–15% checks with external sources.
Rejections: Deny with evidence; report to authorities if criminal.
Training: Update staff/AI on new fraud tactics.
Best practices: Multi-layer (AI + human); statistical sampling.
