BUYER LENS

Know what this service should answer before you scope it.

What factual question must be developed, documented, or resolved without turning the investigator into the claim decision-maker?

01

Good reasons to start here

  • The file contains conflicting or incomplete facts.
  • A witness, scene, activity, relationship, or chronology requires independent development.
  • A suspicious or complex matter needs a defined investigative path rather than open-ended monitoring.
02

What to have defined

  • The authorized investigative question and assignment purpose.
  • Known parties, chronology, and relevant records already held by the client.
  • Any jurisdiction, representation, contact, or escalation restrictions that govern the work.
03

What this should inform

A clearer factual record for the carrier, TPA, counsel, or other accountable authority to evaluate.

ACCOUNTABLE OWNERSIU, claims, counsel, or the authorized matter owner.

CONTROL BOUNDARY

SERVICE FAQ

Procurement and operating questions.

Do public datasets show all provider billing?

No. Public and federal-source data have real gaps, especially for commercial-payer activity.

Can you verify licences and exclusions?

Where authoritative sources are available, yes, with retrieval context preserved.

Does a pattern prove fraud?

No. Pattern analysis can support investigation; it does not itself establish fraud.

Can this connect to SIU referrals?

Yes, where the evidence warrants further authorized investigation or referral.

DECISION CONTEXT

This service does not operate in isolation.

The engagement should connect to the correct buyer, adjacent operating layer, and assurance boundary without blurring professional authority or the source of record.

ENTERPRISE JOURNEY

Connect this service to the rest of the operating model.

Move from service selection into the adjacent operational, evidence, integration, assurance, or intelligence layer that the matter actually requires.
