Identity theft with Photo ID Cards
As healthcare costs continue to skyrocket, eliminating opportunities for fraud becomes increasingly urgent. It is estimated that fraud accounts for at least 10 percent of total healthcare spending. One of the fastest-growing forms of abuse involves individuals attempting to gain insurance coverage using someone else’s identity.

With a photo ID card solution from Lexmark, healthcare organisations and patients alike benefit when insurance cards and policy numbers are safeguarded with this indisputable proof of identity.
