Cases of fraud relating to claims are usually handled by a special investigation unit (SIU). An adjuster can assign a claim to a SIU if he thinks there is fraud involved in the claims. One or more investigators in the SIU can then use the Claims screen - SIU Dashboard view to manage the fraud-related activities. A claim can be assigned to various investigators, for example, to arbitration or litigation specialists. Table 19 shows the primary fields in the SIU dashboard.
