Top 10 Cost Drivers Tell Employers How to Fix WC Programs

July 7, 2009 By //  by Michael B. Stack Leave a Comment

In the 2009 RIMS Benchmark Survey, the ten areas of inquiry are taken from Workers Comp Kit to determine how well companies are “covering their bases.” These areas are: 1- Use of Resources 2- Claim Reviews 3-Post Injury Response Plan 4-Return to Work Policy 5- Medical Care Coordination 6- Performance Goals 7-Communication 8-Training 9-Fraud Reporting 10- Medical Cost Containment This groundbreaking action allows companies to now compare their performance to the risk management community. Employers can now compare their cost containment activities to other companies in the risk managment community.
