NCCI to Run Tennessee Workers’ Comp Plan

The Tennessee Department of Commerce and Insurance (TDCI) has chosen the National Council on Compensation Insurance (NCCI) as the new plan administrator for the residual market, the Tennessee Workers Compensation Insurance Plan (TWCIP).

NCCI will administer the plan, which will be renamed the Workers Compensation Insurance Plan (WCIP), beginning with policies effective July 1, 2015.

NCCI will offer application processing and administration of the plan rules, and access to coverage in certain other states.

Tennessee joins 22 other states in utilizing this national workers’ compensation residual market system. NCCI said it will hold instructional meetings across the state in mid-May.
