Work Injury Care
Workplace injuries can be a costly problem. At Midown Occupational Health, we provide work injury care and save you time and money.
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.
For the most part, on the job injuries are common in construction, manufacturing, warehousing, and agriculture.
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.
Why Midtown Occupational Health?
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:
Fast Action
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.
Correct Diagnosis
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.
Comprehensive Strategy
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.
Constant Communication
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).
Ongoing Partnerships
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.
