Thus, it’s imperative that you develop a comprehensive and efficient program to get your employees back to work as quickly as possible without sacrificing the quality of their treatment.
At Midtown Occupational Health, we are dedicated to providing top-notch physical and occupational therapy in Denver, CO. Since we’re doctor-owned, we don’t have to satisfy anyone but our patients and you, the employer. Since 1982, we’ve worked with countless companies to develop care plans that not only treat injured workers but reduce the risk of re-injury by helping workers build the strength, flexibility, and resiliency to confidently return to work.
No matter the industry you work in, work can lead to injury, work-related disability or job-related chronic illness. Not having an actionable physical and occupational injury care policy and plan, including preferred providers, can lead to significant consequences including added cost for the employer, increased time away from work for the worker, and loss of revenue for both the worker and employer. Trying to navigate the worker’s comp system is challenging and overwhelming, which can complicate the problem down the road.
That’s why you need a partner focused solely on Occupational Health and injured worker recovery right here in Denver. Here are some of the reasons why working with Midtown Occupational Health is so beneficial.
As a doctor-owned occupational injury care clinic, we don’t outsource our treatment programs – everything stays in-house. Because we monitor our patients from beginning to end, we can facilitate a smoother transition from healing to physical therapy to getting them back to work when they’re ready. In fact, when you speak with a case worker, you are on the phone with our downtown office, not an outsourced service center. You work with the same in-house team every time.
So much of the worker’s compensation system is waiting, and that can be worsened when different offices and clinics need to communicate. Since we handle all aspects of work injury care, we’re your only point of contact throughout the entire process. We don’t cut corners, but we do streamline our programs to benefit everyone involved.
Another benefit of working directly with work injury doctors is that you don’t have to worry about various markups and fees. We work with employers to come up with affordable physical and occupational therapy plans that don’t skimp on treatments.
Be sure to contact us to see what kind of plans we have available. Also, we don’t only specialize in workplace injuries. We can assist you in developing strategies to make the job site safer so that you don’t have to worry about claims as much in the future.
Such a big part of workplace efficiency is tied to morale. When workers feel that they are mistreated or ignored, they are much less likely to provide their top efforts. When it comes to occupational therapy, those employees may try to extend treatment options to avoid getting back to their job.
By having comprehensive work injury care in place, you can show your staff that you care about their health and well-being. This dedication will improve morale and inspire them to be more productive.
According to recent data, the average payout to cover a work-related injury came in right around $39,000 per worker.
Unfortunately, many job sites don’t have the tools in place to address these situations, and many walk-in clinics in Denver don’t exclusively manage workman’s compensation claims can focus on the short term and miss items that can lead to recurring health problems and future claims, which puts both workers and employers in a difficult and frustrating situation.
Not only that, but the real cost of work injury care goes beyond the price of treatment. Loss of productivity can be even worse, leading to significant downtime and setbacks. In 2017 alone, businesses lost over $50 billion in revenue due to loss of productivity.
Within these industries, around four percent of workers (four out of every 100) will get injured at some point, which means that developing a plan is crucial to protect both employees and companies.
You need a partner that can help you get your workers back on the job faster, with the best possible recovery outcomes and at a lower cost than an average claim. At Midtown Occupational Health, we are a Denver-based, locally owned, doctor-owned business that specializes in work injury care. We identify the injury quickly so that we can develop a treatment plan faster and more efficiently. We invite you to schedule a time to learn how we partner with employers and employees to manage cost, improve outcomes, and boost wellness and performance.
Unlike other healthcare companies specializing in work injury care, we are doctor-owned, so we know how to treat our patients with the right amount of care. We can also provide many benefits for your business, including:
The longer you wait to handle a claim, the worse it will be for everyone involved. Your employee will take longer to heal, and your medical costs can skyrocket as a result. At Midtown Occupational, we can develop a treatment plan quickly so that we can move this process along as efficiently as possible.
Sending workers to generic healthcare clinics can lead to potential problems down the line. Our doctors specialize in identifying the injury or condition, thanks to our years of experience in Occupational Health, Worker’s Compensation, and work-related injury recovery. Misdiagnoses can not only lengthen the healing process, but it can lead to higher medical bills as well.
Another way we make sure to diagnose correctly is to focus not only on urgent care, but also rehabilitation. For example, a torn muscle needs to heal, but to avoid chronic pain, scar tissue needs to be addressed and the muscle strengthened to reduce the risk of re-injuring the same body part.
When an on the job injury happens, the primary focus is on making sure that the employee can recover as quickly and thoroughly as possible. At Midtown Occupational Health, we develop a comprehensive treatment strategy all the way through the healing process. After diagnosing the injury, we come up with physical therapy options, strength tests, and work assessments. Simply put, we take care of our patients from beginning to end.
One significant problem that companies and workers run into in these cases is that they have to talk to a variety of different entities. Clinics, doctors, insurance companies – it can be overwhelming and confusing, which only slows the process down.
At Midtown Occupational, we handle everything, and we make sure to communicate with both you and your employees every step of the way. Everyone is involved in the healing process to ensure that there are no mistakes or misunderstandings. We also make sure to keep everything in-house, rather than outsourcing to other clinics or offices across the country (or the globe).
The best way to treat a workplace injury is to prevent it from happening in the first place. At Midtown, we work with you to make sure that the job site is as safe as possible. We can assist with addressing potential health and safety concerns so that your workers don’t have to worry about getting hurt on the job.
