Frequently asked Questions...
Q: Work Comp rates are mandated by the “state” work
comp cost should be the same with every insurance
company, right?
A: No. This is the most misunderstood portion
regarding your worker’s compensation insurance
premium calculation. The rates are only the starting
point and carriers do indeed have to abide by NCCI
rate calculations, but your final premium cost
ultimately is determined by your program placement,
claims manager, dividend scale and skill level of
your insurance agent to provide your company with a
product that is molded to fit your company’s
specific needs.
Q: My new experience mod is higher, yet my company’s
claims experience has decreased, is this correct or
can corrections be made?
A: We are constantly finding errors in experience
mod calculations. Remember, your mod is not solely
based on your claims activity, it also includes your
company’s correct payroll numbers and the use
of your company’s correct experience rating
