Disability Management
With qualification for benefit programs like non-occupational disability insurance, social security and workers’ compensation often dependent on a doctor’s determination, claims payers can play a crucial role in helping them make sound assessments. A popular NWCDC speaker, Dr. Marcos Iglesias will help you understand disability-assessment methods and decipher what makes someone disabled, whether it’s a diagnosis or an impairment — and who gets to decide. You’ll discover the value of accurate communications with medical providers and how they can help the injured regain an active life.
