Tech Tuesday ? Workers' Comp Claims Go Mobile - ISU Insurance ...

According to a recent Insurance Journal article, the University of Alabama of Birmingham has created a new mobile application for workers? compensation claims.

Who It?s For: Any company with a workers? compensation claim. The application created by UAB is currently being utilized by the managers and supervisors of the local businesses with whom UBA partners to handle workers? comp claims.

How It Works: The manager or supervisor downloads the mobile application to his or her smart phone or computer. An icon appears on the phone or computer screen that, when clicked, opens to a web browser with a form. When an employee is injured on the job, the manager fills out this form with the injured person?s information and details of the injury. This form is then submitted to the Emergency Department as the patient is being transported to the hospital.

The Benefits:

• Expedites patient care
• Allows for better service to the injured employee and the employer
• Ensures accurate information is sent to the Emergency Department so healthcare professionals know exactly what to expect
• Claims forms and paperwork are properly sent
• Drug and alcohol tests are done in a efficient and effective manner
