Workers' Compensation Research Institute (WCRI) study

A recent study by the Workers' Compensation Research Institute (WCRI) finds prescription drug use and costs to be relatively low in Minnesota, among the 17 states studied. The study, Prescription benchmarks, 2nd edition:  trends and interstate comparisons, is summarized in the August 2011 edition of COMPACT (page 11); the complete study may be obtained from WCRI.
