My goal is to help reduce and remove fraud within the NHS, and if we all share this goal, I know it can be done. The NHS is too important to everyone to be abused and all its resources should be used as intended and not end up in the pockets of fraudsters. Part of my role is to carry out investigations into fraudulent activity and ensure anyone doing so is reprimanded appropriately but I also look for any system weaknesses or gaps in procedures the Trust may have, make recommendations to ‘plug’ these and try and stop any further fraud occurring. Sometimes, it may not be possible to pursue an investigation, through lack of evidence, for example, but if the gap can be plugged it can stop anyone else carrying out the same type of fraud in the future and therefore saves the Trust money. and I believe we all know how vital the NHS is to our society and why we should all be aware that unfortunately fraud does go on and how important it is to report it and put a stop to it. The estimated amount lost to fraud within the NHS is approximately £1.27 billion pounds every year. This money, if not lost, could and should be spent on the important things, such as patients, on employees, on equipment on infrastructure etc.the list could go on. Like me, everybody has a story that links them to the NHS, whether it is care they received personally or for their parents, grandparents, children, friends etc. It is often said fraud is a victimless crime, but this is totally untrue. Fraud, even if it’s against an organisation, will always end up affecting individuals. I started in the fraud world in October 2015 when I became a Compliance Officer at a local authority investigating fraudulent Council Tax and Housing Benefit claims. I gained my counter fraud accreditation and haven’t looked back since.

It was the first time Doog had been able. 149 In 1672 the houses of Matthews, Daniel Higgs, and Stephen Hughes were each licensed for preaching and Lewis Thomas was also granted a license to preach. I picked him up and we drove to the show in a noisy and crowded punk house. It has just been announced that yet another solo album, "Metempsychotic Melodies," will be released via Holy Mountain records on October 23rd in the U.S. Daniel Higgs was playing a show on Halloween and I invited Doog to go with me. According to the Thrill Jockey website, the music/book series "gives each artist the opportunity to fill an entire book with artwork inspired by or related to the music that comes with it." It has been announced by the independent label Thrill Jockey Records that they will be releasing a CD/Book combo authored by Daniel Higgs sometime this year (the first release in the music/book series was by Aki Tsuyuko). Their sole eponymous release was put out by Dischord Records in 2002.Ī new album of solo material, entitled "Ancestral Songs," was released on Holy Mountain records in the Fall of 2006. Higgs was also involved in a side project with fellow Lungfish member Asa Osborne called The Pupils in the early 2000s. The now-legendary Lungfish music band immediately rose from the ashes of Reptile House, and in between that band's activity, Daniel keeps busy by performing solo sets involving jews harp, guitar, and vocals, in addition to creating many other forms of art. In the process, Higgs befriended Ian Mackaye (Teen Idles, Minor Threat, Embrace, Fugazi), who helped to put out the one and only Reptile House full-length. Opening for many "major" bands that came through the Baltimore area, Reptile House gained a large local following, and embarked on several U.S. parallel practices of art, music, poetry, and dance begun at various young ages and are even now continuing to converge on a single practice, which may be compared with or identified as one's own experience of reality offered in reckless worship and sacrifice to the mystery deity hiding within us, around us, and, truly, occluded by our experience of it in our professed knowledge and ignorance." -Guess Whoĭaniel Higgs, greatly inspired by bands such as the Sex Pistols, Black Flag, and Minor Threat, as well as acknowledging Devo as a major influence (lyrically if nothing else) formed the locally popular Baltimore art-punk band Reptile House in the mid 1980s, which he fronted. "Daniel Higgs was born in 1964 in Baltimore, Maryland.
