Electronic Data Interchange

Beginning July 1, 2006 the New Hampshire, Department of Labor began accepting Injury Reports (NH Form 8WC) via Electronic Data Interchange (EDI). The New Hampshire Legislation mandated the reporting of workers claims via EDI. Most are currently reporting claims via EDI today; the few exceptions are those who report a very small quantity of reports in a year. The department will be providing a Web submission method in the near future to allow these low volume employers the ability to report workers claims electronically.

In August of 2008 the New Hampshire, Department of Labor signed an agreement with NCCI, to begin to accept the New Hampshire Form 6WC (Proof of Coverage) filings via EDI. As NCCI currently provides a service for the collection and reporting of proof of coverage information in several states, the New Hampshire, Department of Labor has designated NCCI as its agent to collect, store and report POC Information. We are working on the development of this system with NCCI and expect to complete testing in February/March 2009. You must continue to submit your proof of coverage filings via paper until you are contacted by the department, NCCI or both, to notify you of the switch from paper filings to electronic filings.
