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”.

Massachusetts lawmakers are considering a bill that would force workers compensation insurers and employers to reimburse for medical marijuana.
H.B. 1949, introduced Feb. 16 but made public Tuesday, states that “reasonable and necessary service costs” under workers comp code “may include reimbursement for medical cannabis provided to injured employees who are qualifying patients” according to their health care provider.
New York lawmakers introduced similar legislation in February. Comp experts say medical marijuana reimbursement continues to be an industry issue as insurers grapple with conflicting state and federal laws.
