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.
