Frequently Asked Questions:

• What is the difference between IWIF and Chesapeake Employer's Insurance Company?
   
  • Nothing - IWIF is the OLD name of the company.  They changed their name in 2013 to Chesapeake Employers Ins Co.  Some of the forms still have the old logo IWIF on them next to the Chesapeake logo.
    
     
• What do I do if I recieve a bill from my medical provider for services rendered?
   
  • Usually, every medical bill has a toll-free phone number listed for you to call with questions or updates.  Please do not wait, call that number and make sure they know that the provider knows the Workers Compensation Claim Details.   You may need to give them the same information again:
