Ohio Workers’ Comp Just Changed – Here’s What Agents Need to Know: In this episode of Insurance Shoptalk, host Eric Stein talks with Bob Butts, Chief Risk Officer at Alternative Comp Solutions (ACS), about a major change in Ohio’s workers’ compensation market. For the first time, agents can now sell workers’ comp in Ohio and earn commission, thanks to Senate Bill 2011 and approval by the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation. Bob explains how ACS is leading the way with an Alternative Employer Organization (AEO) model that saves employers 10–30% on premiums, simplifies claims handling, and eliminates the need to switch payroll systems. The discussion covers the differences between AEOs and PEOs, how the pay-as-you-go approach helps employers with cash flow, and why this new model is such a big opportunity for insurance agents.
