This special edition of RxInformer focuses on claims complexity in its many forms, exploring various low-volume high-cost topics, such as mega claims, occupational cancer, degenerative conditions, Long COVID, and more.
More complex and costly claims have become a persistent issue in workers’ compensation. See what drives longer claim duration and higher costs and how to mitigate risk factors.
While the global cancer burden continues to rise, the risk and impact of occupational cancers can vary significantly depending on the nature of the exposure and the affected workforce. For payers who are impacted, the costs can be substantial.
Psychosocial factors impacting injured workers’ mental and behavioral health can be a barrier to recovery. But addressing any concerns early with the appropriate psychosocial treatments can positively affect a claim and health outcomes.
