You can take advantage of State Compensation Insurance Fund's
group insurance program established exclusively for trade
association members. State Fund's group insurance program is
effective in reducing the net cost of your workers' compensation
insurance, while providing you with these extra benefits:
Discounts and Plans
State Fund offers numerous advantages to lower your net cost of
insurance up-front.
Group Discount-ACIC members who qualify for State Fund's group
insurance program can receive an additional up-front discount on
their workers' compensation premium.
Claims Free Discount- an additional savings on the insurance for
smaller employers who demonstrate the ability to control claims
costs and provide and maintain a safe work environment. This
discount is even available to new business accounts when they
provide their experience with a prior carrier.
Merit Rating Plans-provides a mechanism for recognizing an
employer's individual risk characteristics that are not otherwise
reflected in the base rate. Merit Rating may reward an employer's
favorable individual risk characteristics, such as return to work
programs and management-endorsed safety programs.

A good safety record is the best way to control your workers'
compensation costs. State Fund works closely with ACIC to provide
interpretation of safety rules and regulations, analysis of
accident trends, inspections for current hazards, and a summary
of your workplace accidents and their costs. In addition, State
Fund provides free safety materials that help you to develop and
maintain an accident prevention program.
Claims Reporting Center
If you've got an injured employee you can receive immediate
assistance 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with experienced State
Fund Claims Reporting personnel that can direct you to the nearest
approved medical facility while processing the initial paperwork
at 1-888-222-3211.
Medical Provider Network
The State Fund Medical Provider Network (MPN) provides access to
a wide range of approved physicians for the treatment of
work-related illnesses and injuries. As a result, ACIC members can
benefit from medical-cost and policy-premium reductions when they
channel their injured employees to MPN physicians for treatment of
on-the-job injuries or illnesses.
Fraud Prevention
State Fund maintains a Special Investigation Unit that works closely
with district attorneys throughout the state to investigate and
prosecute all types of suspected fraudulent workers' compensation
insurance activities including claimant, attorney, physician, and
employer fraud.
