How Important Is Occupational Health Management To Your Business?

In terms of financial cost, this question is easily answered by looking at a recent study by the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry.  This study reveals companies utilizing the services of a managed care, cost containment organization like WorkWell—featuring aggressive intervention and regular communication with injured employees—can reduce medical and indemnity expenses by as much as 46%.

In terms of the cost of our service to you—that’s easy to measure because our services are free. With WorkWell, you only pay the medical fees you would have to pay anyway. There’s no cost to set up or maintain physician panel programs; no charge for administration or consulting; and no fee for our other value-added services, such as Work Injury and Case Management.

Finally, when you look at these benefits in terms of HUMAN value, it’s even easier to see why your company needs WorkWell.  Another study by the PA Department of Labor and Industry found that workers treated by panel physicians returned to work more promptly and rated the quality of their care more highly than workers using their own physicians.

Lowered costs, faster recoveries, free work injury management services and happier, more satisfied employees can clearly make for a healthier company in the short and long term.

How important is that?
