West Virginia Invites Workers’ Comp Insurers to Open Market Forum

March 25, 2008

On the verge of an open competitive environment in West Virginia’s workers’ compensation insurance market, the state’s insurance commission scheduled a forum for insurers seeking information.

Insurance Commissioner, Jane L. Kline, in conjunction with the National Council on Compensation Insurance said the April 8 forum is specifically designed to provide workers’ compensation carriers with the information needed to begin writing business in West Virginia.

“Exciting changes have occurred in West Virginia creating a new, open and competitive market beginning July 1,” Cline said. “We encourage worker’s compensation carriers to attend the forum to learn about the expanding opportunities that West Virginia’s open market will provide and what companies can do to participate.”

Participants will learn about the changes that have occurred, NCCI’s role and what workers’ compensation carriers must do to take advantage of the quickly approaching open market date.
