State bureau provides new analytics tools for Workers Comp data

The Pennsylvania Compensation Rating Bureau (PCRB) will provide Workers Comp analytics through a new platform to its 400 member insurers. 

The analytics through the Cloverleaf Insurance Intelligence Platform will help PCRB establish a unified platform for claim losses and exposure data. 

“The partnership with Cloverleaf enables insurers to have a stronger understanding of their books of business while delivering real-time data insights to improve internal operational efficiency,” said Bill Taylor, PCRB president and CEO. 

The partnership supports PCRB’s mission to be Pennsylvania’s trusted provider of actuarially based information, research, loss costs, and essential educational services for a healthy Workers’ Compensation system, Taylor said in a statement. 

With Cloverleaf, PCRB insurance members gain access to new self-service analytics about claims loss and exposure data. PCRB said this allows members to conduct benchmark comparisons against statewide metrics and the broader national industry. 

 “The evolving Workers’ Comp marketplace demands cutting-edge data analytics tools,” Taylor said. “PCRB’s new insights from years of extensive data collection will aid carriers in benchmarking outcomes, portfolio management, decision-making, and fostering a stable, competitive market. Cloverleaf provides insurers in Pennsylvania and Delaware with unmatched data access and benchmarking capabilities.” 

As part of the PCRB modernization strategy, the non-profit recognizes the opportunity to expand on internal data with broader data insights using advanced technology, enabling reports, forecasts, visualizations, and other capabilities highlighting important industry and insurance business metrics for each insurer. 

“Our data platform delivers deeper insights about the long tail of business and system changes occurring in the Pennsylvania Worker’s Comp market,” said Thomas Cleary, PCRB senior vice president and COO. “The partnership with Cloverleaf enables insurers to have a stronger understanding of their books of business while delivering real-time data insights to improve internal operational efficiency.” 

PCRB will leverage Cloverleaf’s latest AI-driven storytelling capabilities that are powered by BI, NLP, ML, and AI including Open AI GPT. With OpenAI GPT integrated into Cloverleaf, PCRB members will have access to better data preparation, data science, business analytics, and modules for spreadsheets, storyboards, and publication design.  

The ability to quickly create images, graphics, and designs to support the presentation of insurance data will equip PCRB and its members with easy-to-understand intelligence into every insurance transaction. 

“This is exciting for PCRB, the national Worker’s Compensation industry, and for Cloverleaf as we are accomplishing something that has rarely been achieved on a national level,” said Michael Schwabrow, executive vice president of Sales and Marketing for Cloverleaf. “Cloverleaf has a history of energizing organizations with the power of our platform to better support the insured by tapping the power of once dormant and disjointed insurance data.”
