One result of the opioid crisis is the growing popularity of workers’ compensation drug formularies. Workers’ compensation drug formularies are in place in Arizona, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, and Washington. And they are currently working their way toward approval in the legislatures of Indiana, Kentucky, New York, California and Montana. Texas was the first state to adopt a workers’ compensation drug formulary in 2011. Since then, employers and insurers in Texas have experienced significant savings in prescription drug costs and a decrease in opioid prescriptions.

Little Beaver Inc., a manufacturer of quality earth drills and miniature trenchers, offers D-Series augers for extended drilling depths. The series features a secure drive pin connection, allowing operators to drill deeper than 15 feet during geotechnical and environmental testing and foundation repair. Augers in the series range from 4 to 18 inches in diameter. "There was a need for a heavy-duty auger that not only drilled farther than our standard snap-on augers but also featured a stronger connection point to handle deeper drilling," said Mike Hale, Little Beaver sales manager. "We designed our D-Series augers with the capability to drill down to 100 feet with auger extensions. The augers, although sturdy, are only half the weight of competitive brand augers of the same size. This significant weight reduction makes transportation, on and off the jobsite, easier for the operator."
