Thanksgiving is coming, which means it’s time for our favorite podcast of the year: What are You Thankful for in Workers’ Comp? This year, we invited three experts who share very different reasons why they are grateful for comp: Heart of Case Management Award winner Charlene Ramsey, RN, BSN, CCM; Helen Froehlich, vice president of case management; and Donna Bradshaw, vice president of IME Services. We hope their responses lead you to contemplate on your own unique role in workers’ comp and how YOU make a difference in the lives of others.

Value-Based Contracting

May 31, 2017

Value-based contracting (VBC) is one of the most talked-about topics at conferences, in stewardship meetings, and in workers’ compensation requests for proposal (RFPs). But for all the discussion around the term, one thing seems missing: a common definition. VBC seems fairly straight-forward to most observers and that might be part of the problem.
