Too often, defense of a workers’ compensation claim and recovery on the subrogation side are managed separately. You can posture both claims for success, however, by coordinating efforts.
In this LIVE webinar on Monday, August 19, 2024, Greg Lois dives into the issues of investigation, damages, discovery, trial strategy, and “global” settlements.
Course Outline
How to identify third-party action potential when you onboard a new claim
The benefit of constant communication between the handling claims professional and recovery specialist
Keeping an eye out for potential exposure beyond just workers’ compensation, such as intentional wrong claims, the “Scaffold Law,” HIMP-1 reimbursement requests, etc.
How to push for a “global” settlement of all claims simultaneously, with examples
