> Claim Management
and Control
Many
employers today aggressively approach only the five percent
of their claims that they feel are questionable and assume
the remaining ninety five percent will take care of themselves.
This simply does not happen.
Unfortunately,
the “system” is very liberal and some of those contested
claims are going to draw benefits. To control Workers’ Compensation
costs in today’s environment, a company must control all
their claims, particularly, the ninety five percent of the
legitimately injured employees.
At Hunter
Consulting Company, we have developed what the average length
of disability is for most types of injuries. Every lost
time claim is monitored to track this period of disability.
We contact the claimant’s doctor on any claim that exceeds
the norm to discuss his prognosis and restrictions for return
to work. We then discuss with you the options available,
whether that may be modified jobs, independent medical exams,
or rehabilitation. As your service company, it is our responsibility
to identify for you those claims that need attention.

us for more information.
