New Minimum Wage
January 1, 2020
Governor Andrew M. Cuomo reminded New York workers and businesses that minimum wages for New York State increased on December 31, 2019, and that employers should update their required minimum wage informational posters. In 2016, the governor enacted the nation's strongest minimum wage law, which is being implemented in phases. The new minimum wage for all business in New York City is now $15.00. Phased increases also affect all employers outside NYC. For more information, visit www.ny.gov/minimumwage
New Drug Formulary
November 14, 2019
The NYS WCB recently implemented a Prescription Drug Formulary, which lists the medications eligible for reimbursement under a claimant’s workers' comp medical coverage. Beginning December 5, 2019, all new prescriptions for injured workers must comply with the requirements of the Formulary. Beginning June 5, 2020, all refills and renewals must comply with the Formulary. We urge claimants to discuss their medications with their health care providers to determine if their medication is reimbursable under their workers’ comp medical coverage and make appropriate changes as necessary. For more information, visit the WCB Formulary website.
