What will a workman's compensation audit accomplish?

  • Focus on the Experience Rating and payroll audit aspects of worker’s compensation premium calculations.
  • Examine the payroll exclusions (certain items that per manual rule are not to be included in the premium calculations, such as the premium portion of overtime)
  • Check all rates, discounts, fees, and surcharges to verify accuracy with original quotes and state filings.
  • Review experience modification rates and data sent to the rating bureau by the carrier.
  • Review subrogation, second injury fund, and other such claims for proper accounting in the Experience Rating.
  • Review all statistical reports from the Rating Bureau to confirm proper accounting, inclusion and exclusion of claims.
  • Examine classifications of companies and individuals.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) about worker’s compensation audits & refunds.

My broker works very closely with us on the workers compensation policy. How is it you can help?

Brokers that do get very involved in the worker’s compensation programs typically monitor claims activity. This can make our service more valuable because the more activity in the way of adjustments the greater the likelihood of an error in the modification calculations. The payroll audit aspect of our service is an area that 99.9% of all brokers do not get involved with at all. In fact, many brokers send a letter to the insured asking them to carefully review the audit because they have no way to verify its accuracy.

Our accounting firm reviews the workers compensation audits. Wouldn’t your efforts be redundant?

Our expertise is solely in the workers compensation arena and as such we are typically successful in spite of the efforts of numerous other professionals who may have a working knowledge of workers compensation, yet be unaware of certain rules that would save a company money.

I believe we just had an audit done?

By whom? What exactly did they do? Were they on-site to do an audit? Did they review the experience mod? Did you get a refund?  What was the error?
