Healthcare is complicated and often costly. Any misstep on the path of care can increase the physical and financial burden of healthcare. Some of the costs of missteps are hidden.
The costs add up when employees lose productive time at work by going offsite for needed care like medical surveillance, appointments for prescriptions or follow-ups, annual wellness checks, and screenings.
When employees at different work locations receive different treatments for the same health concerns, the costs related to inconsistent treatments add up.
When employees bounce from one provider to another, following a seemingly endless chain of referrals, which may or may not be necessary for the care they really need—those costs add up, too.
Other costs of missteps are more pronounced.
Getting unnecessary treatment for a worker injury at an emergency room or an urgent care center can be one of those missteps. Either facility may not be the not the right place or the appropriate level of care for an injury. However, if you’re not a medical professional, making the call about where a worker should go for treatment is not a position you want to be in. Yet the ensuing claims and the fallout of adding an OSHA recordable to your record all come at significant expense.
On the flip side, delays in getting the right level of care, due to a “wait and see” mentality or to the unavailability of proper injury assessment, can increase the cost of care as untreated injuries worsen.
And the cost of poor health security—or no health security—at your worksites can be crippling if a worker with COVID-19 spreads the virus to their coworkers.
Medcor’s solution to complicated healthcare and unnecessary costs is
Health navigation is all about bettering carepaths. It’s about using evidence-based medicine paired with technology to get patients the level of care they need, at the right time, and in the right place. This in turn removes burdensome guesswork from the traditional healthcare process, prevents unnecessary claims and their associated costs, improves health outcomes, and gets employees back to productive work sooner.

What We Do
Integrated Services
All of Medcor’s services can be combined into an integrated program that enhances health navigation. In-person onsite services together with our telehealth solutions complement each other for cohesive health and safety.
Medcor’s 24/7 availability and convenient access to care provides early pre-claim intervention. Our proprietary technology and care protocols and patented assessment methods get health incidents on the right track, right away. These practices prevent people who don’t need more than first aid from unnecessarily entering into the healthcare process and expedites entry to the right level of care for the cases that need more attention.
When offsite care is needed, we refer to your in-network providers, and you’ll see greater in-network utilization for cases that really need to be there.
Medcor’s services are powered by our software and systems, so worksites can implement standardized, consistent care across locations. Our software customizes reporting for your organization and fulfills state and federal documentation requirements (including OSHA recordkeeping and OSHA reporting).
Which of Medcor’s services is best for your workforce? We tailor our services to fit the needs of your workforce and financial goals.
