Accident claims and costs have dropped by 40% in the last 10 years but the total cost of compensation paid out has remained the same. This is due to the complicated WSIB system and employers not knowing how to properly manage their compensation claims to ensure the best use of the compensation system. We will assist you by initially determining if cost relief is obtainable through an analysis of Accident Cost forms and New Experimental Experience Rating (NEER) statements. Additional cost relief will then be obtained by establishing an effective early return-to-work program. We will also develop a complete WSIB Claims management program. The programs will include the implementation of proven accident/incident prevention programs, refund/surcharge forecasting for planning and proactive liaison with the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board representatives for your location and industry.

WS&IB COST RECOVERY PROGRAM

Our Experience Rating Cost Recovery Program involves a retroactive review of recent NEER & CAD-7 assessments to ensure our clients have received (or are receiving) the maximum financial benefits under the NEER & CAD Programs.

We will review areas of cost savings such as:
• Secondary Injury & Enhancement Fund Relief (SIEF)
• Third Party Claim Cost Transfer
• Claim Amalgamation
• WS&IB Cost Statement and other errors

This review can be undertaken on a Contingency Agreement where you only pay if and when savings have been obtained and verified to your satisfaction. Unlike most firms who conduct contingency reviews, we DO NOT include project future costs when calculating NEER savings for billing purposes.
