Description
The Illinois Workers' Compensation Commission (IWCC) is seeking inclusion in the Workers' Compensation Research Institute's (WCRI) CompScope Benchmarks and CompScope Medical Benchmarks reports, 26th Edition. The CompScope reports measure the performance of the largest workers' compensation systems and provide a baseline for tracking the effectiveness of policy changes and identifying important trends. The IWCC requires ongoing data from the CompScope reports to monitor the effects of changes within the State's workers' compensation system and make comparisons to other states. The contract is for a one-time purchase with an estimated value of $205,000. Key aspects of the job include:
• The CompScope reports will provide the IWCC with objective and credible evidence on the current performance of the State of Illinois workers' compensation system.
• The reports will examine how income benefits, overall medical payments, costs, use of benefits, duration of disability, litigiousness, benefit delivery expenses, timeliness of payment, and other metrics of system performance have changed over time.
• The IWCC will use the data and analysis from the CompScope reports to improve its data analytics and metrics and to track the effectiveness of policy changes.
• The contract is for a specific edition of the reports, suggesting it may be a one-time purchase.
