If a person commits a fraudulent insurance act or any crime associated with a fraudulent insurance act, the venue for charging the crime may be any county in which the offense, any element of the offense, or payment related to the offense was perpetrated, received, produced, prepared, instigated, procured, promoted, or aided. If a person commits a fraudulent insurance act and commits additional crimes in the commission of a fraudulent insurance act or as part of a scheme associated with a fraudulent insurance act, venue need only be established for one offense. All offenses associated with a fraudulent insurance act may be charged in the same venue as established in one of the counts.
