Section IX - Electronic Submission

The Workers Compensation Insurance Organizations (WCIO) has developed standards for the electronic transmission of information between insurers and rating/advisory organizations. These specifications are available for unit statistical reporting and individual case reports. These standards are compiled into a series of flat file data specifications referred to as the Workers Compensation Data Specifications Manual. Delaware has adopted the WCIO Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) Committee’s changes to WCSTAT. The DCRB encourages the use of electronic submission. Carriers should contact the DCRB’s Systems & Programming Department at (215) 568-2371 to discuss establishing an approval and implementation schedule for submitting WCSTAT electronically. The Workers Compensation Data Specifications Manual can be found on the WCIO website at www.wcio.org.
