PRE-MSA TRIAGE SERVICE
Projected life-time medical and pharmaceutical treatment costs on workers’ compensation claims are often unnecessarily high, and therapy frequently falls outside evidence-based medical guidelines. The Pre-MSA Triage is unique tool for payers to stage claims for optimal outcomes by assessing MSA exposure before the MSA is initiated. We provide a concise executive summary that includes the following:
- Projected MSA cost based on current medical and pharmacy treatment regimen
- Snapshot view of MSA exposure in a non-discoverable (not an MSA) format
- Overview of inappropriate, unnecessary treatment and cost drivers that may impact MSA and settlement
- Case-specific recommendations based on jurisdictional issues and opportunities
- Action plan and next steps to optimize settlement outcomes before the MSA is prepared
The Pre-MSA Triage describes the care and cost issues and recommends interventions, such as Physician Peer Review, Clinical Oversight and Conditional Payment Searches/Negotiations to improve the quality of care and reduce overall claims costs. Clients frequently receive 30 to 50% savings from these interventions.
