Catching Insurance Fraud Using Graph Database Technology
Blog post from Neo4j
Insurance fraud is a sophisticated and effective crime that can be challenging to detect, but graph databases can help combat collusive fraud by analyzing relationships between individuals involved in fake accidents. Typically, insurance fraud rings involve multiple roles such as doctors, lawyers, body shops, and participants who work together to stage false accidents and claim soft tissue injuries, known as "whiplash for cash." These rings often use complex schemes involving multiple people playing different roles, making it difficult for traditional relational databases to detect them. However, graph databases can be used to identify fraud rings by querying intricate connected networks, allowing insurance companies to flag suspected fraud in real-time and prevent costly claims.
