The New York State Insurance Department plans a public hearing on June 23, to go over a proposed 7.7% increase in the state’s workers’ compensation loss cost. State law requires the insurance department to hold a public hearing if the rate increase would surpass 7%.
The NYCIRB, a non-governmental entity that serves as the advisory rate service organization for workers’ comp in New York State, filed the requested increase after compiling and evaluating loss cost changes in the state. (workersxzcompxzkit)
If the rate increase is approved, the proposed change, filed by the New York Compensation Insurance Rating Board (NYCIRB), would take effect October 1, 2010. The approved loss cost is used by workers’ comp insurers in setting rates.
