Bill overview
This bill modifies Arizona’s workers’ compensation insurance rate regulations. It allows insurers, particularly those covering firefighters and fire investigators, to request deviations from standard rate filings. Specifically, insurers can file up to six uniform percentage deviations to decrease or increase statewide rates, or a subclassification rate related rule. Furthermore, it allows a single, larger increase to address anticipated losses related to firefighter cancer claims, supported by actuarial analysis and data from various sources. The Director will review these deviations, and the bill outlines a process for approval and a waiting period before they take effect.
