Texas Mutual Introduces Online Wage Reporting Tool

Texas Mutual Insurance Company introduced its newest tool at texasmutual.com: DWC-3 Employers’ Wage Statement reporting. The tool reduces cumbersome paperwork and helps ensure that injured workers receive timely, accurate benefits.

The DWC-3 Employers’ Wage Statement form provides wage information that Texas Mutual Insurance Company uses to calculate injured workers’ benefits. If an employer knows that an injured employee is going to be off work or have reduced wages for eight days or more, the employer must file the form with the insurance carrier. Employers must also submit an updated DWC-3 form within seven days of any information changing from the previous wage statement.

The DWC-3 online tool prompts the employer for the required data. Once the employer has completed the online form, the system calculates the wages and sends the information directly to the adjuster handling the claim. The system also emails the employer a PDF version of the completed DWC-3 form to provide the injured worker and other appropriate parties.

To use the new tool, policyholders should:

–Go to texasmutual.com
–Click on loss run and claim detail
–Log on (Employers who are not registered to use Texas Mutual online services should complete the online application)
–Select the appropriate claim and click on Complete Online DWC Form 3.
