How Leveraging Technology to Produce Objective Data Leads to Better Outcomes for Musculoskeletal Injuries
Craig Deneau, Vice President of Payer Partnerships, FIGUR8
Josh Williams, Senior Director, Clinical Solutions and Strategic Partnerships, FIGUR8
Colleen Medlin, Vice President of Workers’ Compensation, PRN Physical Therapy

Does the thought of PT on a WC claim make you think of treatment without end and without objective improvement? Join us to learn about bringing objectivity to the realm of PT. Figur8 will show how technology can yield objective and functional data that can lead to shorter claim duration and better final outcomes for injured workers. The Boston Red Sox and other high-profile organizations have adapted FIgur8’s methods.

"Train" to Age, Cuz it ain't Easy
Brian Ferris, M.D., Centerline Surgical Consulting

Inflammatory processes in the human body can cause multiple complications and greatly impact WC claims.

Attendees will come away with deeper knowledge of this complex process and how to better manage claims impacted by inflammation.
