This study can help policymakers and other stakeholders identify current cost drivers and emerging trends in payments, prices, and utilization of medical services among nonhospital and hospital providers in the Michigan workers’ compensation system. The report examines how these metrics of medical payments in Michigan compare with 17 other states and how key metrics have changed from 2013 to 2018. In some cases, data for injuries before 2013 were used to supply historical context for key metrics. Claims with injuries up to and including 2018 (evaluated as of 2019) were analyzed. Information from other WCRI studies was added to provide a more complete picture of the system in Michigan.
