Indemnity Data

In June 2019, the WCRIBMA announced that the WCRIBMA’s Governing Committee authorized the implementation of a Massachusetts’s Indemnity Data Call. The Indemnity Data Call will follow the WCIO record layout. It will include two separate reporting records 1) a Transactional Record and 2) a Quarterly Record. The Indemnity Data Call began with indemnity claim activity occurring in the Second Quarter 2020 with the first data due by the end of the third quarter 2020. Carrier groups with at least 1% market share on direct written premiums in Massachusetts over the most recent three years were required to submit the Indemnity Data Call.

In October 2022, the WCRIBMA announced that the WCRIBMA’s Governing Committee authorized expanding the reporting requirements for the Indemnity Data Call. Carrier groups with at least .5% market share on direct written premiums in Massachusetts over the most recent three years are now required to submit the Indemnity Data Call. The change in eligibility threshold will become effective with transactions beginning in second quarter 2023 with the first data due to be reported to the WCRIBMA by the end of the third quarter 2023.
