Sally Griffiths, director at VFM, commented: "Geographically, distance is an issue for Australian insurers. As well as deterring the opportunist fraudster, VFM ensures that accurate evidence is gathered in the early stages of the claim, meaning that loss adjusters and investigators are presented with real evidence from the insurer before they take the often long trek out to the claimant. This results in more focused investigation work and ultimately, more proven frauds.“
VFM will also be launching its counter fraud training to the Australian insurance market for all customers facing staff in the industry including claims handlers, brokers and loss adjusters. Its ERA training programme, accredited by the University of Portsmouth, delivers conversation management skills needed by investigators to identify and manage fraudulent claims over the telephone. In addition, VFM offers the Accredited Counter
Fraud Technician qualification.Griffiths added: "We are excited to be launching our services in Australia and look forward to engaging more closely with the industry to share our best practice techniques and help insurers combat this crime in a way which treats the honest customer fairly, protects brand loyalty and customer service, whilst still putting a stop to fraud."
