Tanya Sherman, Market Regulation Supervisor, will focus on aspects of her work in market regulation that will be of interest to members of the Chessie Chapter. While her role has not been investigation of fraud, Tanya has uncovered multiple instance of insurance fraud at the state and national level.

She will talk about the kinds of insurance fraud she has encountered, what alerted her to fraud, and risks involved. When Tanya became suspicious about patterns of activity at a house across the street in the neighborhood where she lives, she used her professional skills to identify a drug cartel at work. She will talk about the action that she took because of her professional training and data bases she used that are available to the public.

The program will follow an interview format and allow ample time for question/answer.
