Dayton Claims Rep Is Ohio BWC’s Fraud Finder Of The Year

A claims service specialist (CSS) in the Dayton service office received the 2016 Fraud Finder of the Year award Jan. 26 from BWC’s Special Investigations Department (SID). The CSS received the award for alerting SID to a case in which an injured worker claimed to be wheelchair bound and unable to ambulate. Surveillance video in SID’s subsequent investigation, however, showed the claimant shopping, going to the movies and climbing steps at a football game, all without a wheelchair or assistance of any kind.
