WORKERS' COMPENSATION CASE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
The Problem
Employers are faced with sky-rocketing workers' compensation costs. This has contributed to the disintegration of the faith employers and employees once had in each other. In this setting it is no surprise that:
150 billion dollars are spent annually on workers' compensation costs... and still rising
$7,000 is the average medical cost per claim
$13,000 is the average wage-replacement (indemnity) cost per claim
Millions of dollars are spent unnecessarily on workers' compensation litigation depleting resources for legitimate injuries
