"We are excited to begin offering Cmpany Nurse® to our insured and their injured employees," said Robert Woods, Sr. Vice President of Claims for Energi. "The new Energi Triage program is designed to provide a proactive approach to claims reporting, encouraging best practices around prompt reporting, and providing injured works with immediate access to care." Energi previously encouraged employers to send workers, even those with minor, non-serious injuries, to the ER. Company Nurse® provides access for initial care for minor work injuries where an ER visit is not necessary. "We believe Company Nurse® will prevent unneeded and costly Emergency Room visits, adding great cost benefit for our policyholders," said Robert Woods, Sr. Vice President of Claims for Energi. Energi emphasized that the Company Nurse® program is not a replacement for immediate medical care in the event of a serious worker injury. In the event of a serious injury, employee and employer should always dial 911 and report the injury after the employee is stabilized.
