To the Honorable, the Legislature:
In accordance with s.
601.427 (9), Wis. Stat., I am pleased to submit this report to the Wisconsin Legislature. This report is to evaluate the impact that
1995 Wisconsin Act 10 has had on the following:
(a) The number of health care providers practicing in Wisconsin.
(b) The fees that health care providers pay under s.655.27 (3), Wis. Stats.
(c) The premiums that health care providers pay for health care liability insurance.
The evaluation performed included the collection and analysis of statistics regarding the number of health care providers and premiums charged for health care liability insurance. Analysis of these statistics determined the only discernable effect on these areas has been an estimated $89 million dollars reduction in the actuarially determined assessment levels under s.
655.27 (3), Wis. Stats., over the last nine years.
The attached report provides information regarding the background of Act 10, the statistics collected and the analysis performed.
Sincerely,
Jorge Gomez
Commissioner
Referred to committee on Health.
