IWCC Posts Coverage Schedule for Former Arbitrators' Calls

Since Gov. Quinn appointed the new IL workers' compensation arbitrators on Friday, the IWCC needs to reassign the former arbitrators' current cases.  The IWCC website now has the coverage schedule for the calls of the former arbitrators. 

In its News section, the IWCC's website states

...Finally, please be aware that we are in the process of consolidating 24 arbitrator territories to 17, reassigning 85,000 cases among the newly appointed arbitrators, and switching our continuance schedule from two months to three months. It is an enormous undertaking, and we are doing this with a 30-year-old mainframe system. We are doing everything we can to make this a smooth transition, but please expect some bumps in the road. Check this website frequently for announcements regarding changes in calls or trials. We will appreciate your understanding and patience. If you have questions, please contact the Chairman's Office (312/814-6560).
