§ 4123.39.

The administrator of workers' compensation shall determine the amount of money to

be contributed under section 4123.38 of the Revised Code by the state itself and each county and each taxing district within each county.  In fixing the amount of contribution to be made by the county, for such county and

for the taxing districts therein, the administrator shall classify counties and other

taxing districts into such groups as will equitably determine the contributions in

accordance with the relative degree of hazard, and also merit rate such individual

counties, taxing districts, or groups of taxing districts in accordance with their

individual accident experience so as ultimately to provide for each taxing subdivision

contributing an amount sufficient to meet its individual obligations and to maintain

a solvent public insurance fund. The administrator shall classify hospitals owned by a political subdivision or subdivisions

as a group and merit rate each individual hospital according to its individual accident

experience as provided in the rules of the administrator. A children's home or other such public institution, or any other public activity maintained

and operated by two or more counties or parts of counties, shall be considered as

a county for the purpose of this chapter. The contribution to the state insurance fund of the state and its departments, agencies,

and instrumentalities shall be paid from appropriations made by the general assembly

for that purpose. The administrator shall develop and make available to counties and taxing districts

and the district activities and institutions mentioned in this section a plan that

groups, for rating purposes, counties, districts, and such activities and institutions

of similar size and risk, and pools the risks of those counties, districts, activities,

and institutions within the group.  In no event shall this be construed as granting to such counties, districts, activities,

or institutions status as self-insuring employers.
