Carriers and insurers submit required information using EDI through one of the state-approved Vendors. Electronic coverage data is stored in a master database maintained by the EDI POC Section.
First Reports of Injury (FROI) and Subsequent Reports of Injury (SROI) are electronically received daily from Third Party Administrators and Insurance Carriers submitted to the Department through one of the state-approved Vendors.
