It appears that after the reforms are completed with ORC 4117, Gov. Kasich will continue with legislative reform.
"...the Kasich administration's next major reform project – after the budget process is completed this summer – will be Ohio’s workers compensation laws.
Ohio is one of only four states with a state-run workers comp system. While the system would be difficult to privatize because of wording in the state constitution, Taylor said a solution may come from finding a way for private insurance companies to enter the fray and compete.
This could be a boon to insurance giants with a large presence in Ohio, such as Anthem, a unit of WellPoint Inc., UnitedHealth Group Inc., Cigna Corp. and Aetna Inc."
