NCCI is busy as usual. Here's some of what's going on:

2024 Regulatory and Legislative Trends (ncci.com) 

We've been hearing from stakeholders that monitoring the ever-evolving regulatory and legislative landscape is a top priority, and this report provides in-depth analysis to the trends that may impact comp moving forward. There's also a media release with quotes, in case helpful for coverage.

Impairment Ratings in Workers Compensation: Gaining Insights From Claim Demographics (ncci.com)

This research focuses on analyzing impairment ratings, incorporating a diverse range of claim characteristics like age, medical condition, state, surgery count, and more. Permanent partial disability injuries account for approximately 50% of all workers compensation costs, with impairment ratings playing a key role in most states. Consequently, changes in impairment ratings can have a significant impact on workers compensation costs.

And, as a bonus, we opened registration for our upcoming webinar, which will take place right around Opioid Awareness Day.: NCCI's Industry Webinar: Opioid Utilization--Looking Into the Future
