Workers’ Compensation
Workers’ Compensation Healthcare Providers in Grand Junction, CO
WorkPartners Occupational Health in Grand Junction, Colorado, specializes in workers’ compensation services. We treat work-related injuries and illnesses. We help both the injured employee and employer navigate the frustrating world of workers’ compensation. We focus on the balance between the needs of the company, the best care for the injured employee, and the requirements of the insurance carrier. We believe that constant communication between the injured employee, company, and insurance carrier will help reduce the overall cost and length of the claim. Our medical providers manage the entire claim process. They contact company representatives about each injury and coordinate all services needed for a speedy recovery.
We view the injured worker as a coach might view a star athlete who suffers an injury. The sooner treatment is started, the greater the likelihood of a positive outcome. We believe in setting functional goals for the injured employee with the expectations that they will be actively participating in the healing process to get him or her back to work as soon as possible. With this they have a better chance of achieving a full recovery.
We understand how an “OSHA-recordable” injury impacts a company and how to appropriately treat it. By helping reduce the amount of lost time and OSHA-recordable injuries, this in turn lowers a company’s overall medical expenses, improves a company’s workers' compensation insurance experience modification (e-mod) rating, and greatly reduces company’s indemnity costs.
At WorkPartners, we treat a wide variety of work-related injuries as part of our workers’ compensation services. The following are commonly encountered work-related injuries:
- Musculoskeletal injuries (which represent approximately 80% of work-related injuries):
