The law of fraud typically requires that the one accused of fraud be proven to have acted intentionally or with wanton disregard for the results of the action. In cases of health care fraud the typical case involves misstatements by people in health care applications for insurance. Sometimes, this is due to simply a lack of care in filling out forms properly. In other cases, however, the health care company is intentionally deceived. Another form of health care fraud can occur when a person misstates facts about an injury so that it will be covered by a health care provider. In all cases of health care fraud, the key element is whether there was an intent to deceive the health care company.
