COVID-19 and the Implications for the Workers’ Compensation Patient

Webinar Description

Our customers are facing a great challenge: preventing, treating, and, ultimately, saving patients with COVID-19. We are all being inundated with a variety of perspectives and struggling to find and interpret facts.

Paradigm and our team of clinical experts are here to help. Our panel of experts will talk about COVID-19 and the implications for workers’ compensation patients, both as a complication to a workplace injury and as a primary occupational diagnosis.

We will talk about:

• The 80/20 rule and why some patients don’t recover quickly
• Cases that requires hospitalization
• The enhanced risks of prolonged ventilator use
• Post-ICU syndromes and the associated medical, neuro, and behavioral consequences
• Care management solutions for COVID-19 acute and post-acute rehab phases
• Case management amidst contagion—how telepresence can be used to bridge the gap
