Summary

The bill changes the Insurance Code so that insurers and rating organizations must alert the Employment Development Department (EDD) when they suspect premium‑related workers’ compensation fraud. It also lets those insurers submit employer wage records to the EDD, receive any payroll discrepancies, and request detailed payroll summaries for fraud investigations, with costs reimbursed by the insurer. The changes aim to improve detection of fraud while protecting worker privacy.
