This 16th edition CompScope™ report benchmarks the performance of state workers’ compensation systems in 18 states, focusing on income benefits, overall medical payments, costs, use of benefits, duration of disability, litigiousness, benefit delivery expenses, timeliness of payment, and other metrics. It compares these system performance metrics in Florida with 17 other states, and examines how these system performance metrics have changed primarily from 2009 to 2014. We analyzed claims with experience through March 2015 for injuries up to and including 2014.
