Tips For Tracking, Monitoring, And Managing Your Workers' Comp Claims

Whether those benefits spiral out of control or are properly managed depends on you - the workers' compensation administrator.

Learning Objectives:

Join us for a 90-minute audio conference when our expert reviews successful strategies for tracking, monitoring, and managing your workers' comp claims.

• Why you never deny a claim and what you need to do if the claim is not compensable
• Why you need a relationship with your workers' comp carrier
• The types of injuries that are "high-risk" - and why you need to be focused on them
