BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

Tenn. bill would not require comp insurers to maintain a claims office

The Tennessee Senate on March 19 passed a bill that would eliminate the requirement for workers compensation insurers to maintain a claims office.

S.B. 1615, sponsored by Sen. Jack Johnson, R-Brentwood, passed in a 32-0 vote and would also remove a requirement for workers comp insurers to contract with a state-based claims adjuster, according to the bill’s latest text.

The bill now goes to the Tennessee House of Representatives.
