- Overuse of medical services and prescribing treatments that are medically unnecessary.
- Increased use of outpatient surgery centers (where fees are unregulated).
- Use of brand-name prescription medications instead of generics.

- Injured worker's lawyer teams up with medical providers to exaggerate the worker's disability from the injury.
