Canada's life and health insurance industry protects over 28 million Canadians, paying out over $85B in benefits per year. But with such vast payouts, various forms of fraud are common, and experienced investigation is needed to protect insurers.
Xpera has the experience and capacity to approach Life and Health Investigations with the customized care these diverse investigations require. We have the ability to utilize our specialized divisions to assist in all types of claims, from Open Source Intelligence (OSINT), to Surveillance, to home visit interviews to develop a full picture of the life and health insurance claim. Through these methods, we provide clarity and expose wrongdoing of clients—some estimates suggest in excess of 10% of claims are at least in part fraudulent.
In addition, Xpera offers a specialized division that focuses specifically on any of your death claim requirements.
