It’s California - - very few people care. This “audit” may provoke some window dressing attempts to cover it up, but the corruption will continue. Surf’s up!

Why on earth would a state’s workman’s comp department need to spend money on marketing?

The 10-month audit offers the first comprehensive look at the extent of organizational and management problems at the San Francisco-based agency, which was created by the Legislature in 1914 and is run by state employees. Its five-member board, appointed by the governor, meets in secret, contending that it is not subject to the state's public-record or open-meeting laws.

In response to the audit, State Fund said it recognized "serious shortcomings" in the way it managed group insurance in the past. Responsible executives have been replaced, and "the new program contains explicit safety requirements, safety performance metrics and auditing requirements," it said.

What a bunch of typical big-government hogwash to cover up the incompetent, and almost certainly criminal, waste of taxpayer dollars.

Workers compensation is totally corrupt in California. Applicants attorneys frequently engage in illegal schemes. The insurance companies often deny solid workers' comp claims where witnesses saw the injury take place.

Thousands of illegal aliens from many countries file fraudulent claims using many false identities. Some even have X-rays (or CT Scans) they have obtain from crooked doctors. They carry them around as they move from place to place filling more false claims. Millions are wasted on fraudulent claims while doctors and lawyers get rich.

The only people suffering are injured workers with legitimate injuries. Everybody else is just riding the fat cash cow into the sunset.
