State Disability Insurance
(SDI) defines disability insurance fraud
as any claim for SDI benefits where a person, alone or in
collusion with any other person, willfully makes a false statement
or misrepresentation, or withholds a material fact for the
purpose of collecting SDI benefits. For example, filing a
claim with SDI for an injury or illness that does not exist
or helping another person file a false claim is insurance
fraud.
An individual who commits disability insurance fraud
against the SDI program may be disqualified from receiving
further benefits for the current claim and future claim(s),
and may be liable to repay a 30 percent penalty in addition
to the overpayment amount. Any person who falsely certifies
to his/her medical condition or to the medical condition of
any other person is subject to an additional 25 percent penalty
on any overpayment made due to the false medical. If criminally
prosecuted, the individual may face additional penalties.
