One Call Care Management Hosts "Connect with the Experts" Booth to Share Insights at National Workers' Compensation & Disability Conference

Complex and catastrophic injuries, a growing population of obese and older workers, and other key challenges continue to plague the workers' compensation industry, leading to soaring claims costs. To help address these issues, One Call Care Management (One Call) will be hosting a "Connect with the Experts" Booth #1456 at the National Workers' Compensation & Disability Conference (NWCDC), Nov. 19-20 in Las Vegas. One Call experts will staff the booth and be available to help attendees examine their toughest claims challenges and outline effective strategies to get injured workers the specialized services, care, and equipment they need.

Kevin Glennon, RN and VP of Clinical Education at One Call, recently delivered the session, "Game-Changing Strategies to Transform Workers' Compensation Results," and will be one of the experts at the booth. "In the midst of many claims challenges and medical complications, workers' compensation professionals are looking for guidance on how to achieve quality care, cost savings, and optimal outcomes. One Call has invested in an unparalleled depth of experts, who provide thought ledership at conferences and deliver CEU training to thousands of adjusters and nurse case managers each year," said Glennon.

In addition to the challenges above, injured workers often have pre-existing medical conditions, such as diabetes, which complicate treatment and recovery. They may be susceptible to chronic pain, opioid abuse, and infections that are resistant to antibiotics. In other cases, they sustain less common injuries-such as dental trauma or hearing loss-which make it difficult for claims professionals to find quality providers and know how to proceed to achieve the best-possible outcomes.

Conference attendees are invited to visit One Call's "Connect with the Experts" Booth #1456. The following experts will be available to discuss their most pressing workers' compensation concerns, as well as potential solutions to their challenges:

• Eric Patten, RN, BSN, Director of Clinical Sales
• Zack Craft, ATP (News - Alert) and VP of Rehab Solutions and Complex Care Education
• Jon Nau, National Director of Audiology and Hearing
• Michelle Depres, PT, CEAS II, Executive Director of Physical Medicine, Align Networks
• Tara Marchand, OTR/L, Director of Functional Capacity Evaluations
• Other experts will address diagnostic testing, leakage capture strategies, claims management technology, air ambulance and other transportation needs, interpretation services for a multilingual workforce, home care, prosthetics and mobility solutions, provider credentialing and scoring, and more.

Beyond the conference, these experts are also available to provide onsite and web-based CEU training, and to set up appointments for further consultation on best practices. On a day-to-day basis, One Call draws on its deep expertise, operational excellence, and quality providers to ensure reliable connections to care and a suite of integrated services that put injured workers on the fast track to recovery and return to work.
