Workers Compensation Case Management
In 2008, U.S. workplace injuries and illness numbered more than 3.6 million! This costs employers billions of dollars in lost productivity, as well as medical and administrative expenses. Progressive companies take steps to prevent job-related injuries and react effectively when they do occur.
Essentially, workers' compensation case management is coordinating and managing services and resources related to an employee's case, claim, or incident. It also involves training supervisors, selecting and managing providers, and developing return-to-work programs. It requires a comprehensive understanding of occupational health issues, OSHA, and workers' compensation requirements. For many companies, NorthWorks Occupational Health is their solution.
