According to state law, fraud is committed when a person:

• Receives workers’ compensation benefits to which he or she is not entitled.
• Makes false or misleading statements with the purpose of securing goods or services under the Workers’ Compensation Act.
• Alters, falsifies, destroys, conceals or removes records or documents necessary to services for which reimbursement is requested in a claim.
• Enters into an agreement for conspiracy to defraud the BWC or a self-insuring employer by making false claims for disability benefits.

BWC is serious about detecting, investigating and deterring fraud.
