Solutions Tailored To Meet Your Needs
ACN Group will work with you to create a program that supports your quality and affordability initiatives. We start by conducting a detailed evaluation of your historic chiropractic and therapy claims experience. Our proprietary data algorithms drive a comprehensive data analysis process that quantifies your specific savings opportunity, identifying both the leverage points and timelines for realizing the opportunity.

  • Identify educational opportunities for practitioners
  • Predict outcomes of care for patients using our extensive claims and outcomes database
  • Provide peer-to-peer education outreach to practitioners addressing variable practice patterns

These solutions can lead to reduced claims experience, reduced disability, expedited return to work, and case resolution.

We will recommend a strategy tailored to your specific cost, return to work, and quality issues that are identified from our analysis. Our dynamic reporting demonstrates the effectiveness of our program and savings.

   

Interesting Fact
Chiropractic care and physical therapy are significant cost drivers for the workers' compensation industry. According to an NCCI Holdings, Inc. study released in 2006, medical costs in workers' compensation grew 9%-12% per claim annually over the past several years. In addition, the Bureau of Labor Statistics states that over 80% of workers' compensation claims are the result of back, neck, trunk and extremity injuries. These studies further emphasize the need for robust chiropractic and physical medicine, and rehabilitation network and care management programs.
