It also provides guidance for managing your organization's safety efforts in a manner that targets workers' compensation cost control as one of its major objectives. In addition to comprehensive coverage of workers' compensation, the book gives you a thorough explanation of additional sources of assistance, including the availability and utility of Internet safety resources, a complete listing of state workers' compensation agencies, and sample checklists that help you evaluate your workplace.

Download or read book The Effects of Provider Choice Policies on Workers Compensation Costs written by David Neumark and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We examine the effects of provider choice policies on workers' compensation medical and indemnity costs. We find no difference in average medical costs between states where policies give employers control over the choice of provider and states where policies instead give workers the most control. But a richer distributional analysis indicates that developed medical costs for the costliest cases are higher in states where policies give workers more control over provider choice. We find similar evidence for indemnity costs, although the point estimates also indicate (statistically insignificantly) higher average costs where policy gives workers the most control over provider choice. Overall, the evidence suggests little relationship between provider choice policies and average medical or indemnity costs, but a higher incidence of high-cost cases when policies give workers more control of the choice of provider.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this review paper on workers compensation issues is to provide a brief description of workers' compensation and to examine the scientific literature on cost containment, case management, prevention, and intervention. Another objective is to formulate and proffer a remedy or process that would be expected to enhance the likelihood of returning the occupationally injured or ill employee to work and to reduce the increasing rate of medical, compensation, and disability costs. Effective case management involves the coordinated efforts of six principal participants, especially the attending case managing physician, the agency's care coordinator-case facilitator, and the line supervisor or employer. The importance of timeliness in managing each case and monitoring the return-to-work plan is emphasized as are the biopsychosocial concerns of the employee who has sustained an occupational illness or injury. A process, the Occupational Illness and Injury Contingency Management Process (OPTICOMAP), has been development by the Public Health Service to ensure the restoration of the injured or ill worker to his or her full potential as well as a quick return to work.
