Managing Opioid Use in Workers Compensation Claims
Opioids continue to play a role in the increasing severity of workers compensation claims. Opioid abuse among injured workers not only affects the general wellbeing of employees, but can prolong recovery and slow return-to-work efforts – all contributing to rising claim costs and less optimal medical outcomes.
At Liberty Mutual, we’re proactively addressing opioid abuse. As a leading carrier who has fully adopted the CDC guidelines on the issue, we’re implementing strategies for managing pharmacy networks to help you and your employees better address this growing problem.
