NCCI has announced that it is filing with the Maine Bureau of Insurance a proposed average premium rate decrease of 6.9% for 2012. It had earlier announced a rate reduction of 3.2%, but revised the rate to take into account the promulgated medical fee schedule finally adopted by the Board in December of 2011. NCCI calculated an additional rate reduction attributable to the newly adopted medical fee schedule projected to be 3.8% , with the resulting overall reduction of 6.9%.
