Factitious Disorders and the Industrial Accident System: Winning and Losing Through Deception

Ronald N. Turco

1220 S.W. Morrison #805, Portland, Oregon 97205, U.S.A.; The Oregon Health Sciences University, Department of Psychiatry

The author discusses the difficulties associated with the evaluation of a "genuine" Workman's Compensation claim as it relates to sorting through the issues of factitious disorders, malingering, and the multiple contributions associated with secondary gain phenomenon. A case example is utilized to assist the reader in gaining an understanding of the subtle issues that arise in the context of the Workman's Compensation setting.
