Telephonic Worker's Comp Case Management

Workers’ Compensation 24-hour telephonic medical case management advisory services from receipt of 1st Notice-of-Injury through discharge at Maximum Medical Improvement and Return-to-Work.

Integrated Health has been providing cost-effective, goal-oriented, case management and return-to-work services for more than 25 years. Geared toward the special challenges of the Worker’s Compensation continuum, Integrated Health has been extremely successful in not only managing the most cost effective solutions to providing the injured worker with medical care, but in working with all parties to get the workers’ back into their organization as quickly as possible.  Our methods are not simply finding the cheapest doctors and clinics to perform the work because that never solves the problem and can often lead to increased costs in the long run.

 

Our role in the complex process is more that of a partner or consultant in not only arranging for appropriate health care options to immediately address the injury; but also to find ways to make job modifications where necessary, to arrange for corporate culture shifts where culture has proved to be an impediment to return to work; and to effectively communicate on your behalf with the various interested parties.
