The Texas Department of Insurance, Division of Workers’ Compensation (DWC) said it is extending its mandatory data call for information on COVID-19 injuries through Dec. 31, 2022.
The DWC previously extended its mandatory data call through June 2022. The latest extension is to ensure that the DWC has sufficient information to determine the impact of COVID-19 injuries on the Texas workers’ compensation system.
The DWC is reminding insurance carriers:
- Only selected insurance carriers/groups are required to comply with the data call. Selected insurance carriers must provide summary data using the COVID-19 data call reporting forms and instructions. Each selected insurance carrier or group is required to provide one data submission per insurance carrier or group.
- Insurance carriers/groups must submit the requested data to DWC through the insurance carrier Austin representative’s secure file transfer protocol box no later than 5 p.m., Central time to be considered timely. See the schedule attached to this bulletin for a complete list of data call submission deadlines.
- Data call submissions are cumulative.
