What pharmacies do we use to treat our injured workers?

The Corvel program is designed to help the injured worker in the following ways:

• It will help the employee avoid out‐of‐pocket expenses for prescriptions to treat on‐the‐job injuries.

• First-fill medications can be obtained after hours, weekends, and holidays.

• It will eliminate most paperwork associated with employee reimbursements.

• It will ensure that prescription medications can be accessed with a national pharmacy network.

• It will reduce authorization delays that are associated with paperbound script processing.

• Finally, it will provide extended service hours and staff to address the injured employee’s questions.

• How is compensability determined?

  Compensability is determined from the electronic Employer’s Report of Injury and/or a phone call with the agency management reporting the facts of the injury.  The SSIF claim representatives utilize the Kansas Laws and Regulations to determine compensability of a claim.
