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”.

ALBANY, N.Y.-With the aid of modern technology, employers can find out if their applications to the New York Department of Health to pay hospital bill care surcharges directly to a state health care pool administrator have been approved by state officials.

The state is listing approved applications on its World Wide Web site at http://www. health.state.ny.us. So far, the state has received more than 20,000 applications from employers and other organizations to make direct payments to the pool administrator, and about 9,500 applications have been approved and are listed on the Web site.

Some applications still have not been reviewed, while many others contained mistakes, which state officials are trying to work out with employers.
