Alive & Well Checks

👤 Confirm Identity. Verify Eligibility. Prevent Fraud.

Ensuring that individuals receiving disability benefits, workers’ compensation, pension payments, or survivor benefits are still alive, eligible, and in compliance with policy requirements is critical for preventing fraud and mismanagement of funds.

At Priority Investigative Services, we conduct comprehensive Alive & Well Checks to verify the current status, identity, and living conditions of claimants and beneficiaries. Our discreet yet thorough investigations help insurance providers, legal teams, and government agencies ensure that benefits are being distributed appropriately.

🔍 Why Alive & Well Checks Are Essential

🚫 Without proper verification, fraudulent claims can result in:

• Financial losses due to continued payments to deceased or ineligible individuals
• Unreported deaths, leading to wrongful benefits collection
• Fraudulent disability claims where recipients are actually able to work
• Misuse of survivor benefits when eligibility requirements are no longer met

🔹 Our investigations ensure that only those who are truly eligible receive benefits.

🛂 Our Alive & Well Verification Services

📍 In-Person & Remote Verification

We conduct in-person visits and digital verifications to confirm:

• Their current living situation and overall well-being

📸 Photo & Video Proof:

• High-resolution photos of the individual

• Emergency contact & next of kin details

🔹 Why This Matters: Identity fraud is a growing issue—ensuring that the correct person is receiving benefits is crucial.

🏡 Residence & Living Condition Assessment

Our field investigators document:

We uncover:

• Deceased individuals still collecting benefits
• False disability claims where individuals are working off-the-books
• Family members fraudulently receiving benefits for a deceased relative

📊 Surveillance & Activity Checks:
