The number of questionable claims (QCs) filed during the 2011 first half increased 4.5 percent compared to the previous year, according to a recent National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) analysis.
The report takes into account a total of six referral-reason categories—property, casualty, commercial, workers' compensation, vehicle and miscellaneous—for the first half of 2009, 2010 and 2011.
The QC terminology denotes claims that NICB-member insurers submit to the Des Plaines, Ill.-based not-for-profit organization for closer review and investigation based on one or more indicators of possible fraud.
