information maintained by insurers (or their agents) concerning 
insurance claims, settlements, awards, and payments. On a daily basis, 
OCSS sends the results of the insurance data match in an ``Insurance

respondents opting to electronically report quarterly.
    Respondents: Insurers or their agents, including the U.S. 
Department of Labor and State agencies administering workers'
