Go to Texas Department of Insurance Fraud Unit website.
The industry estimates that 10-18 percent of property/casualty claims are fraudulent, costing Americans a
whopping 25 Billion dollars annually and the average American household $200 a year in additional premiums to compensate for the fraud.
The perpetrators of this type of crime are often professionals operating from law offices, medical centers,
auto repair shops, or even your neighbor next door. Whether they work alone or as a group, they all share the same goal: to defraud insurance companies. But the real loser in the end is you, the
premium paying policyholder.
Hochheim Prairie and the insurance industry continue to work together to fight fraud.
