Insurance Claims Fraud Detection & Analysis
Detect insurance claim fraud through systematic pattern analysis and forensic investigation
What You Can Do
You systematically extract financial red flags from claim submissions, construct causal narratives linking evidence to fraud conclusions, and quantify potential loss exposure. This skill helps you distinguish between legitimate claim variations and fraud indicators, enabling you to generate investigation summaries defensible in litigation, settlement negotiations, or Special Investigation Unit (SIU) presentations.
Features
Automatically identify suspicious patterns across claim documentation, timeline inconsistencies, and financial anomalies
Calculate exposure amounts and potential fraud-related damages with forensic precision
Build legally defensible causal chains linking evidence directly to fraud conclusions
Compare multiple claims from the same claimant to detect systemic fraud schemes
Analyze business interruption, inventory, and casualty claims for inflated valuations or misrepresentation
Identify discrepancies between incident date, discovery, reporting, and claim submission
Generate structured investigation summaries formatted for coverage counsel and Special Investigation Unit presentation
Cross-reference claimant financial records against claimed damages for supporting documentation gaps
Example Output
Example 1: Staged Casualty Claim
- Red Flags Identified: Loss reported 3 days after policy inception; claimant's prior claims history shows 2 similar incidents in 18 months; supporting invoices use generic vendors with no contact verification
- Fraud Exposure: $125,000 (estimated replacement cost vs. salvage value)
- Narrative: Claimant pattern indicates serial filer with accelerated claim timeline relative to coverage inception, suggesting pre-planned loss scenario
Example 2: Inventory Inflation
- Red Flags Identified: Claimed inventory ($450K) exceeds 12-month average by 340%; tax returns show lower reported values; no independent appraisal provided
- Fraud Exposure: $280,000 (difference between claimed and verifiable inventory)
- Narrative: Financial records demonstrate systematic overstatement of inventory values, with claimed loss significantly exceeding IRS-reported amounts for same period
What's Included

This skill automates the complex work of calculating material price, quantity, and usage variances; labor rate and efficiency variances; and overhead variances across products, departments, and time periods. You input production data and standard cost tables, and Claude processes the variance calculations, organizes findings by significance, and generates detailed narratives explaining root causes of deviations. This transforms hours of spreadsheet manipulation into a structured analysis package ready for management review and variance committee meetings.

You can build comprehensive standard costing systems that allocate indirect costs across products and production departments using appropriate cost drivers. Claude helps you calculate material, labor, and overhead variances, compare actual costs to standards, and investigate root causes of significant deviations (typically >5-10%). This enables data-driven decisions on product pricing, profitability by line, and operational improvements.
