The insurance industry is a cartel in the classic sense. Immune by a special federal law from antitrust laws and federal regulation, it has grown into one of the most sophisticated and powerful economic and political forces in our society. Organized and cooperative, American workers compensation insurers have come to dominate the governmental forces meant to regulate them. The National Council on Compensation Insurance (NCCI) decides what workers' compensation insurance will cost in most states. It maintains a low profile for obvious reasons and is governed by committees of representatives of the insurance companies that support it. Few state governments are a match for the techinical expertise or the political muscle of the NCCI and most state insurance commissioners have little choice but to accept it's conclusions since their resources are pitiful in comparison. I think you will find their web site most interesting. The link is below. http://www5.ncci.com/ncciweb/ |

Posted At 14:05:10 06/12/2000 The secret is, you enter www.ncci.com I'm not clear on the technological details, but something about the website itself then translates what you enter to the other URL. |
