DOWNLOAD EBOOK →As the implementation of workers' compensation managed care programs spreads, the volume of state rules and regulations for the industry multiplies as well. And as you know, keeping track of the various iterations is an extremely difficult task. The future holds more regulation, not less. You need a resource that allows you to quickly scan summaries of the latest laws and regulations in each state to easily identify opportunities around the country to expand you business. State-by-State Laws and Regulations on Workers' Compensation Managed Care covers all the rules on every aspect of workers' compensation, including choice of physicians ... utilization review ... provider reimbursement ... cost containment dispute resolution ... 24-hour care ... and much more. Completely updated to include numerous new laws passed since the last edition was published, the 1999 Edition helps you: identify states with favorable -- or unfavorable conditions for expanding your business -- watch out for changes in what you can, can't and must do in states where you already do business -- know in advance which products and programs can -- and can't -- succeed in states where you plan to do business. Don't miss out of profit opportunities -- or run afoul of the law -- just because you don't know the rules.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →For human resource professionals, labor law specialists, and others involved in the practice of labor-management relations, Lencsis provides a concise, easily-accessed description of the workers compensation system in the United States, its governing laws and also its insurance aspects. Covering all major facets of workers compensation legislation and the insurance and risk management techniques used to comply with them, his book will have equal benefits for the staffs of insurance companies and brokerages, compensation and claims professionals, and for workers compensation executives in governmental agencies. Lencsis explains that workers compensation laws were enacted on the federal and state levels in the early part of the century and have endured in the same basic form to the present. They represent a radical departure from common law concepts of negligence and damages in that they provide for statutory medical and wage-loss benefits regardless of who is at fault. Lencsis explores how insurance mechanisms in the public and private sectors are used to fund benefits and to make their delivery as secure and certain as possible. He also notes that workers compensation insurance is a major part of the property-casualty insurance business, and as such has recently become one of its most profitable areas. Lencsis' book helps readers to understand these concepts and to work with them in the day-to-day conduct of their business.
