The FBI reports the American insurance industry consists of more than 7,000 individual companies which together collect over $1 trillion a year in premiums. Not surprisingly, the size of the industry and the money involved serves as an attractive moral hazard to thousands of private individuals and businesses to engage in insurance fraud. The total cost of non-health insurance fraud is estimated to be more than $50 billion per year, resulting in increased premiums of $400 - $700 per household.
