Employee Injured On the Job?
MD Surgery is Your Solutions
Dealing with an injured worker can be a daunting proposition for any business. There is often so much uncertainty, and a litany of potential problems that could stem from the injuries. From loss of production, to not knowing how long the process may take or cost, it is often filled with doubt and uncertainty. A self-funded employer often does not understand the nuances of the process, and how to anticipate the level of disability, as well as the costs associated with that level. This leaves them in a less than enviable position, as these answers can often be difficult to find, especially when the more pressing issue of running a company at a high level does not disappear.

The Importance of Worker’s Compensation Impairment Rating

So, what is the Worker’s Compensation Impairment Rating?
The Worker’s Compensation Impairment Rating is a score issued by an independent physician that evaluates the health of a patient. This is most useful in dealing with claims that are long-term. The score is determined at an Impairment Rating Evaluation and once it is completed, they receive a score on a 100% based scale. This test is only required once a worker has been receiving compensation for 104 weeks. This is useful for cases in which the Maximum Medical Improvement has not left a clear resolution in terms of recovery and compensation related issues. With the easy to understand score that is provided by the rating, companies will know exactly where they stand. When a rating is greater than fifty percent than the worker is entitled to their compensation claim in perpetuity, while a score under fifty percent means that claim is not forever and will last up until a certain amount of time. This can make it easy for a company to financially account for what they are obligated to pay in the future instead of existing in a state of confusion as time progresses. With our network we can handle the entirety of this process for any company, as well as many other services and functions using our extremely convenient bundle payments that alleviate stress and take the concern out of your hands and leaving you knowing exactly where you stand.
