I already have workers' compensation insurance. How can I benefit from using IMC's services?

Many of IMC's clients are fully insured. You can use IMC's services to maximize reductions in costs and lost time associated with workers' compensation claims. Our professionals are sensitive to your point of view. Their outcome-measurement driven approach and medical orientation enable them to manage cases and bring them to closure efficiently. Efficient case closure can reduce your direct and indirect costs as well as your experience modifier- which helps determine your workers' compensation premiums.

How does IMC reduce workers' compensation costs?

IMC uses Physician-to-Physician interaction to reduce costs. IMC's physicians use their medical knowledge to ask the right questions and work with the treating physician in a cooperative manner. This peer-to-peer interaction ensures appropriate diagnostic and therapeutic procedure utilization and appropriate return to work. Learn more about IMC's Absence Management Services.
