Founded in 1983, the Workers Compensation Research Institute (WCRI) operates as an independent nonprofit research organization focused on public policy questions related to workers' compensation systems. In the research services field, it aims to deliver high-quality, objective information derived from studies and data collection conducted with established scientific methods and subjected to rigorous peer review to safeguard impartiality. The institute's findings are intended to support a broad range of stakeholders, including public officials, employers, insurers, injured workers, and organized labor, across the United States and internationally. Headquartered in Waltham, Massachusetts, WCRI does not take policy positions; instead, it provides evidence to inform discussions and decision-making. Its research covers variations and outcomes within workers' compensation systems, offering insights into how these programs function for policymakers and other affected groups. In 2025, WCRI released its Medical Price Index for Workers' Compensation.
