Dear colleagues,

I am SO sorry to bother you, but Stanford’s attempting to metric or benchmark the Workers Comp appointments here to optimize staffing and want to know what others are doing. Would you be able to answer these quick questions?

1. What is the size of the workforce that your workers comp program is responsible for?
2. How many RNP/PA/MD do you have in Workers Comp?

3) How long (eg. 60 minutes) is a NEW patient worker's comp appt with the provider? 

4) How long is a follow-up worker's comp appt with the provider?

5) How many case managers do you have?

6) Any idea How many New injuries you see each week?

7) How many WC cases are filed at your place per year? APPROX is fine!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Wendy
