In 1998, shortly after the Office of the Insurance Fraud Prosecutor became operational, the insurance industry through two of it's trade groups the Insurance Council of New Jersey (ICNJ) and the New Jersey Special Investigators Association (NJSIA), organized the first annual New Jersey Insurance Fraud Summit in conjunction with the NJSIA's annual training seminar.
For the next five years, this annual summit occurred in conjunction with the NJSIA seminar late in the month of October. Beginning in 2003, in support of efforts to have the month of October proclaimed Insurance Fraud Awareness Month by the New Jersey State Legislature, it was decided to separate the Annual Insurance Fraud Summit from the NJSIA's annual training conference and establish it as a standalone event in early October. From 2003 until 2008, the Annual Insurance Fraud Summit was held at the Trenton War Memorial.
Beginning in October 2009 the ICNJ and NJSIA, as a cost savings measure, decided to return to the original format with the Annual Summit taking place in conjunction with the NJSIA Annual Training Seminar.
As in the past, participation in the Summit will be by invitation only. Invitations will be emailed by mid-September.
This year's Annual NJSIA Anti Insurance Fraud Training Seminar will begin on Monday evening with the Welcome Reception.
Training workshops will commence on Tuesday October 22nd and Wednesday October 23rd, concluding at 12:30 PM.
