How to determine if your company should become
self-insured? Add up the premiums your company paid to insurance companies
for the past 5 years. Subtract what the insurance companies paid out in
losses for the past 5 years. If the insurance company collected more
premiums dollars than they paid out, your company is a candidate for
becoming self-insured.

The advantages of using an external Third Party
Administrator: |
ICC’s
purpose is to provide an innovative solution to third party administration
services. Within any organization the effective use of resources are
paramount to the development of profits and continued growth. With the
ever-increasing application of the Third Party Administration the ability
of an organization to separately function, independent of an insurance
company, has proven to be a successful alternative. The advantages of
using an external Third Party Administrator are:
(a). The
cost of a third party administrator is less overhead expense than paying
an insurance company. (b) Immediate access to highly trained highly
efficient professional people. People that are experienced -eliminating
the costly introduction and training curve that is inherent to the
introduction of an internal department. (c) People that are motivated to
perform at peak proficiency, immediately and continually. (d) People that
are not "ON THE CLOCK" and are paid for only what they produce -
eliminating costly down time. (e) Expenses directly related to
productivity and chargeable directly to specific problems, costs, or
incidents.
There is
a simple choice when keeping cost to a minimum: Consider the technological
approach with ICC, THE experts in Administrative Claims.

A General Look
| |
Workers’
Compensation Laws are similar in concept to that of liability without regard
to fault. However, workers' compensation applies
only to workplace injuries.
All fifty states have developed comprehensive workers’ compensation
statutes, although some states have allowed employees the option as to
whether they want to be covered by the
statute or whether they do not want the coverage.
The basic
concept behind Workers’ Comp is that the statute eliminates an employee’s
right to sue the employer for a
work-related injury. However, it does imposes automatic liability for
compensation upon the employer.
Workers’ Comp
has replaced the rights of recovery as it is normally conceived under common
law. Workers’ Comp. has
created a system in which injured employees receive definite compensation
according to scheduled and non-scheduled injuries.
If the injury
is work-related, the employer must pay, regardless of who is at fault,
however, there are
exception that vary from State to State.
