SIU receives Governor's commendation

May 10, 2001

CompSource Oklahoma’s Special Investigations Unit was honored at Quality Oklahoma Team Day 2001 ceremonies, May 10, at the State Capitol. They received a Governor’s Commendation for their "We’re serious about fighting fraud" program.

The awards brochure stated, "The Special Investigations Unit teamed with policyholders and the Attorney General’s Office to develop a more efficient process of detecting, investigating, and prosecuting workers’ compensation fraud. The process utilizes a variety of technological tools, including computerized detection and a toll-free 24 hour anonymous hotline. During the year 2000, they saved the state $2.6 million."

CompSource Oklahoma’s display booth on the second floor rotunda, complete with actual case videos and photos, was manned by SIU Investigators.

A big "Congratulations" to SIU!
