Abstract
The purpose of this Article is to review existing regulatory requirements and provide a document to guide insurance regulators in the development of insurance fraud regulations. This Article performs that purpose by engaging in a comprehensive examination of antifraud laws of general application. Consequently, anti-fraud laws applicable exclusively to a specific type of coverage, such as workers’ compensation insurance, viatical settlement contracts, health insurance, life insurance, or automobile insurance, are beyond the scope of this Article. By examining anti-fraud laws of general applicability, this Article attempts to provide a platform for encouraging standardization, which would narrow the range of disagreement between jurisdictions in the context of anti-fraud laws. It also ensures greater predictability, certainty, and uniformity in the interpretation and application of laws.
