In the Workers’ Compensation arena, the use of Telemedicine offers the benefits of convenience, accessibility, improved outcomes, early intervention, and cost-effectiveness for our clients. But, most importantly, it allows injured workers to receive immediate care from the appropriate medical professional. Concentra is the nation’s largest and leading occupational health provider with the commitment to “improving the health of America’s workforce, one patient at a time” – Concentra Telemedicine for Work Injury Care – Concentra . While you can utilize Concentra’s Telemedicine platform directly, HIB Consulting highly recommends that it be paired with a telephonic triage service like Medcor or CarivaCare. In doing so, you add one extra step of “risk transfer” to-the-mix by allowing their medical professionals, plus years of data analytics, to determine if an industrial incident would be a good fit for virtual treatment.
