Performance Based Oversight (PBO) System Results

Section 402.075 of the Texas Labor Code mandates DWC to, at least biennially, assess the performance of insurance carriers and health care providers. Based on the performance assessment, insurance carriers and health care providers will be placed into regulatory tiers: poor performers, average performers, and consistently high performers. DWC must then focus its regulatory oversight on the poor performers. Insurance carriers will be assessed in even numbered years and health care providers will be assessed in odd numbered years.
