Insurance Coverage Lookup

The Wisconsin Compensation Rating Bureau (WCRB) has designed a worker’s compensation insurance coverage lookup application to assist in the lookup of an employer's insurance carrier. The Coverage Lookup provides a means for employees, attorneys, heath care providers and others to obtain insurance carrier claims processing information for a particular coverage, injury, or illness date.

Wisconsin law requires most employers to provide workers' compensation insurance. The Coverage Lookup provides information for 1) employers that have purchased a Wisconsin worker’s compensation insurance policy and 2) employers (parent companies and their subsidiaries) that have obtained State of Wisconsin approval to self-insure. Employer and insurance carrier information is updated weekly.

The Coverage Lookup allows users to search by an accident date (October 1991 to present) and then by employer name or employer Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN) or employer address to determine the insurance company that was covering the business on the date of an injury.

The Coverage Lookup can also be used to determine if an employer has a current Wisconsin worker’s compensation insurance policy.

The insurance carrier name, address and telephone number is provided.

The Insurance Coverage Lookup is located on the WCRB web site.
