Navigating The Impact of Hospital Closures on Workers' Compensation

Quick Overview

Anyone who lives in a rural area knows that rural medicine is not the same as medical care in the city. Small, local hospitals close or are bought by large hosptial networks and are converted from a hospital to an urgent care center or emergency room. Even when the local hospital stays open, they don't have the resources that other hospitals do.

What does this mean for the injured worker and their workers' comp claim? Join us as Nancy Germond brings us this session to help us to navigate this growing issue.
