Secondary prevention strategies

Primary prevention strategies have made work environments safer. The bad news, though, is that the cost -- or -- severity of claims that do occur is increasing.  Primary prevention addresses only part of the injury management equation.  Increased severity plus decreased frequency equals a failure in the post-injury part of the injury management process.

To address claims costs, employers need to adopt secondary prevention strategies to reduce the number, cost and duration of employee injuries.  Secondary prevention means improving injury management processes and practices and identifying and reducing cost drivers.

Secondary prevention strategies include the following;

                    Assessing injury management practices

                    Benchmarking and process improvement programs

                    Addressing contractual relationships and transparency with 
                    insurance companies and third party administrators

Our goal is to assist employers and their risk managers and safety consultants in addressing secondary prevention strategies that will improve injury management outcomes as well as their bottom line.

Our proprietary three phase  assessment methodology provides us the opportunity to learn about your existing injury management program and to identify areas with in your program and contracts  in need of enhancement or modification.
