Texas Mutual Expands Work Comp Health Network Service Areas

Texas Mutual Insurance Company reported that the Texas Department of Insurance approved the insurer’s request to expand its workers’ compensation health care network service area.

The expansion includes the Wichita Falls area (Archer, Baylor, Clay, Throckmorton, Wichita, Wilbarger and Young Counties), the Sherman area (Grayson County) and the Laredo area (Webb County). With the expansion, the network will be available to approximately 97 percent of the company’s policyholders.

Policyholders who are eligible for and choose the network option benefit from occupational health care services designed to control the costs of workplace injuries. The network’s focus is helping injured workers get well and back on the job. Most policyholders who participate in the network also get a 12 percent annual premium discount.
