New York State should centralize its workers’ compensation data in an information bank that could be used to analyze and improve the system, Insurance Superintendent Eric Dinallo says.
The information bank would comprise detailed claim-related costs as well as measurements of quality of and access to care.
That recommendation is one of several made by Dinallo in a report prepared by the Insurance Department’s Workers’ Compensation Reform Task Force, which met with lawmakers, labor groups and other state agencies about various workers’ compensation issues.
The report also recommends that the state create an independent research division at the Workers’ Compensation Board which would use the data bank to conduct research for special projects and that the research division explore the potential of building a partnership with a university in New York.
