In order to ease the procedure and to provide the best possible benefits to injured workers and their family members, companies often choose cost containment strategies as a course of action.
Considerations for Personal Injury Claims/Compensations

According to the Medicare set aside workers’ compensation, injured individuals and their family members may receive the claim based on following important considerations:

- Where Severity and extent of the damage took place because of personal injury
- Personal injury consequences on an individual’s normal life and daily activities
- Total cost and duration of the respective medical treatment and/or physiotherapies
- Level of suffering and pain based on the highlighted medical record review by a doctor
- Loss of income suffered by an injured person and his/her family member because of the injury and exact time (weeks, months or years) will require returning for the work.

Containment Strategies to Benefit Workers

In order to ease the procedure and to provide the best possible benefits to injured workers and their family members, companies often choose cost containment strategies as a course of action.

This procedure starts when a certified legal nurse consultant with intimate case familiarity meets with the doctor in the medical office and directly negotiates the necessary evidence supporting the regime of pharmacy in a non-threatening and collaborative manner by giving top priority to the injured individual.

Next, the nurse gets a signed agreement from the doctor to collect details about changes in utilization of drugs via drug utilization review with the doctor in charge. In addition to this, the legal expert maintains contact with the doctor on a quarterly to yearly basis to remain compliant and evaluate the necessary medical changes needed.
