Comcare selects Allianz and GB for claims services

Commonwealth workers’ compensation scheme Comcare has selected Allianz and Gallagher Basset as third-party claims services providers for the non-corporate federal agencies covered by the scheme.

This will give federal agencies greater control in managing their workers’ compensation claims.

Comcare put a tender to market in April this year.

Gallagher Basset has also been the claims management provider for the Northern Territory government self-insurance scheme and icare NSW claims management provider for self-insurance general lines claims.

Trials of similar models were held over the past two years in the Department of Human Services and the Australian Taxation Office.
