Abstract

The Financial Cost of Healthcare Fraud 2014 Report renews research first undertaken in 2009 and repeated in 2011, collating the latest accurate, statistically valid information from around the world about the real financial cost of healthcare fraud and error (as opposed to the cost of detected or reported fraud). In all, the report evaluates 92 separate loss measurement exercises covering 14 different types of healthcare expenditure totalling over $2.99 trillion (£1.93 trillion) in 33 organisations from 6 countries. The data which forms its conclusions is held in the largest fraud loss measurement database in the world with data collated over 15 years. The data is derived from accurate, statistically valid loss measurement exercises and relates to total losses, not just what has been detected or reported, which is only a small proportion of the total cost.
