AB 2663

Bill Subjects

Abstract

Existing law prohibits knowingly employing runners, cappers, steerers, or other persons to procure clients or patients to perform or obtain services or benefits under workers' compensation coverage or to procure clients or patients to perform or obtain services or benefits under a contract of insurance or that will be the basis for a claim against an insured individual or his or her insurer. Existing law makes every person who violates these prohibitions liable for a civil penalty of not less than $5,000 and not more than $10,000. This bill would adjust those civil penalties to not less than $10,000 and not more than $25,000.
