GAO Testimony: Unauthorized or Bogus Entities Have Exploited Employers and Individuals Seeking Affordable Coverage
U.S. Government Accountability Office [GAO] 
Mar. 9, 2004
22 pages. "DOL and the states identified 144 unique entities not authorized to sell health benefits coverage from 2000 through 2002. Although every state was affected by at least 5 of these entities, these entities were most often identified in southern states. These unauthorized entities covered at least 15,000 employers and more than 200,000 policyholders. The entities also left at least $252 million in unpaid medical claims, only about 21 percent of which had been recovered at the time of GAO's 2003 survey." [GAO-04-512T, published Mar. 3, 2004, released Mar. 3, 2004]
