Worker's Compensation Law and Claims Management

Northeast HR for Hire has developed a proven system that combines all the techniques necessary to effectively manage the Worker's Compensation process. Our goal is to help the client learn the appropriate skills to act as the "gatekeeper" in Worker's Compensation cases. As "gatekeeper", the business owner or manager gains control over the claims process which results in minimizing lost employee hours and reducing incurred costs to the company.

Our consultants can help the client understanding the complexities involved in Worker's Compensation law and claims management. We can help you answer the following questions:

• Who is covered by Worker's Compensation?
• Who provides the benefits?
• What injuries and diseases are covered?
• What benefits are provided for medical care and time away from work?
• What are the reporting mechanisms?
• What are the eligibility requirements?
• What procedures are followed when an accident or illness occurs?

Our approach combines the management of the illness or injury from two directions, the claimant and their physician (Case Management) and the insurance company or third party provider (Claims Management).

The use of this approach allows us to maintain contact with the injured employee and all the interested parties involved in the Worker's Compensation case.
