WHAT IS HSC FRAUD?

Fraud against Health and Social Care (HSC) can take many forms and cover a wide range of offences including fraud, corruption, bribery, theft, forgery or any other dishonest act committed by an individual or group of individuals to obtain a financial gain or cause a loss to the HSC.

While those who commit fraud against the HSC are a minority their actions can have a serious impact on us all.

Any money lost to fraud undermines the ability to provide many necessary services, potentially leading to longer waiting lists and fewer staff to support patient care.
