To accomplish these objectives, the early assembly of a catastrophic claims team is quite critical. To provide the injured worker with required care, medical services, and equipment, the team should conduct a comprehensive assessment and provide clinical oversight of the injured worker’s case. The team’s ultimate goal should be to cohesively work towards the best possible results, while continually monitoring the injured worker’s treatment/rehabilitation, and overall status. A strong, clear, and consistent flow of communication with family members, medical providers, and all staff members involved in the claim is vital to it’s success.

EXAMPLE OF CATASTROPHIC INJURIES:

Catastrophic work injuries could involve:
  • Head or brain injuries
  • Back, neck, and spinal cord injuries
  • Loss of vision of both eyes
  • Paraplegia or quadriplegia

TREATMENT PLAN:

Catastrophic injuries generally involve multiple body parts, and as such, require the involvement of multiple medical providers and specialists. This can make it very difficult to manage the case. An improperly managed, or uncoordinated claim, could result in the injured worker’s condition deteriorating substantially. Thus, the health of the injured worker could worsen to an alarming degree.
To avoid such catastrophic outcomes, the treatment plan must utilize quality clinical expertise by licensed practitioners who are able to provide a centralized management of the case and ensure an optimal result.
The treatment plans for catastrophic injuries are typically complex and costly. It requires sophisticated medical care, multiple surgeries, physical therapy, rehabilitation, and psychiatric treatment. Specialized equipment is often used as part of the treatment program, for example, “walkers” or “wheelchairs”. In certain situations the injured worker’s home may need to be modified to fit the new lifestyle of the injured worker. An example might be, the installation of a “wheelchair lift” at home or in the transportation vehicle, or a “ramp” installed to ease the in home mobility.

HOME CARE:

Most catastrophically injured workers are unable to return to a gainful employment, and may never gain full independence again. Under these circumstances, “home care services(1)” become a significant factor in the injured worker’s daily life. In some cases, family members could be used as a provider of home care services to the injured worker.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Catastrophic injuries generally result in preventing the injured worker from returning to gainful employment. It is almost indescribable how a single, serious injury could have such a highly destructive financial impact on the injured employee and his/her family. Just imagine the financial stress and impact on a family when the main financial provider has sustained a catastrophic injury and cannot return to work.
Even with good medical care, sometimes the injured worker is unable to resume his/her normal life activities. In some cases, the injury is career ending for the employee. If the injury turns out to be career ending, it is absolutely imperative that the injured worker receives compensation to the maximum extent provided by law, in order to minimize the substantial financial impact of the injury on the injured worker’s family.

CLAIM MANAGEMENT TEAM:

One of the main factors in obtaining a “successful result”, is to assemble a proactive team, with solid clinical expertise, and allow them to coordinate and cross function your medical care. The team should consist of an Assistive Technology Professional, a Registered Nurse, a Rehab Specialist and a Project Manager. An early assembly of this team will put the injured worker and the clinician’s in the best possible position to make a comprehensive evaluation of the case and establish a well coordinated plan. Time is of the essence. The team functions are as follows:
  • To collaborate efforts and focus on getting the best result for the injured worker.
  • Provide an ongoing coordination of medical care with different medical specialities,
  • Proactively engage with the medical provider experts to provide any medical services required by the injured worker, such as medical equipment, devices, supplies, home care, and any other specialized services.
  • Work with a physical therapist or occupational therapist to assess the needs for home care, medical equipment and home modification,
  • Work with the family members to create a support team to the injured worker,
  • Communicate with the family members to build a proper and reasonable expectations,
  • Work with the medical providers team to identify co-morbidities such as diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, poor circulation, and obesity.
  • Death

QUALITY ASSURANCE AND RED FLAGS:

  • Losing or gaining weight is an indication that a problem exists,
  • The presence of skin rashes or change in color of the skin, blisters, or soreness may indicate an improper equipment use,
  • A persistent wound that will not heal is often an indication of improper nutrition or diabetic condition.
  • Any deviation from the treatment plan. Ongoing monitoring of treatment should be made to ensure the injured worker is following treatment recommendations.
  • Any deviation from the treatment plan needs to be discussed with the medical provider team to find an alternate solution to improve compliance.
