Experience Modification Rating
The workers compensation modification factor can often be an overlooked or misunderstood element of an employer’s workers comp policy.
While most employers realize that a lower workers comp mod (also called the experience rating factor, ex-mod, or x-mod) is somehow a good thing, many don’t make the connection between this number and their premium costs. Others don’t realize that a mod of 1.0 is just average, and they may have considerable opportunities for saving on their workers comp premiums. That’s where Power Group can help.
Our software enables us to:
- accurately project the experience rating factor before it is promulgated by the bureau
- identify the minimum mod possible and calculate the controllable mod, thus showing how much money could be saved in premiums
- analyze losses to show what specific losses cost in increased premiums
- better communicate the factors affecting the mod and illustrate the value of loss control and loss prevention services
- anticipate client concerns, such as a significant change in payroll or loss trends which may impact the mod for several years
- increase accuracy of cost allocation and risk management decisions
- use the mod in underwriting before it is promulgated by the bureau
- forecast the mod for the next policy period
- compute and verify the accuracy of mods
Let us show you how to take control of your modification factor today.
