This 15th edition of the CompScope™ Medical Benchmarks study focuses on how various metrics of workers’ compensation medical benefits in Michigan have changed over time compared with 15 other states (Arkansas, California, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Texas, Virginia, and Wisconsin). The study covers the time period of 2007 to 2012, with experience through March 2013. The study also provides findings from other WCRI reports to give the reader a deeper understanding of other aspects of the Michigan workers’ compensation system, such as use of narcotics and worker outcomes.
