Our medical management team identifies qualified medical providers to add to our state-specific medical networks and panels on a ongoing basis. That's because at Zenith, we know that experience and relationships go a long way in effectively treating workplace injuries and managing claim costs. Medical providers who regularly treat patients with workplace injuries and illnesses understand the importance of collaborating with the employer, employee and Zenith throughout the course of treatment. Through our collaborative approach, the provider obtains a better understanding of the employer's day-to-day operations and is able to establish appropriate medical restrictions for a safe and speedy recovery.
Tip: Find a medical provider before an injury occurs. It's helpful to develop a relationship with a medical provider in your area. Talk with the provider before injuries occur to educate them on your business and your commitment to safely returning your employees to work. Many medical providers will maintain files with your company’s post-incident drug testing policies, transitional work options and company contact information.
Depending on the state you live in, the panel or network of doctors that your employees can receive treatment from will vary. Visit the Find a Medical Provider page in our Claim Center to learn more.
