Workers’ Comp Settlement Initiatives:
Resolve Challenging Claims Faster
Medicare Secondary Payer (MSP) issues continue to frustrate claim settlement. The longer claims stay open, the more challenging it is to reach a settlement. That is why it is important to have an effective settlement initiatives strategy.
Learn how developing strategic settlement initiatives can help you meet your MSP challenges to close out claims and reduce exposure.
Claims topics that will be covered include:
- Current WCMSA trends and approaches
- Identifying WCMSA cost drivers
- Options to reduce RX exposure
- Challenging CMS WCMSA decisions
- Building claim settlement projects
- Retooling MSP best practices
Who Should Attend
Claims managers, risk managers, adjusters, compliance managers and other interested personnel from insurers, third-party administrators and self-insureds

Join our webinar to discover the full Verisk toolbox of solutions that can help you get what you need—and skip what you don’t—when tracking driving histories.

Medicare Year in Review
It was a banner year in 2019 for Medicare updates across the board! There were new Section 111 User Guides, several new Commercial Repayment Center (CRC) policies, changes to Workers’ Compensation Medicare Set-Asides (WCMSAs) and Medicare Advantage Plans (MAPs) continued their successful march for “double damages.” And, let’s not forgot CMS’ Section 111 penalty and future medicals, including Liability Medicare Set-Aside (LMSA) proposals – and brewing compliance activity with the other “M” – Medicaid.
In this webinar, we will recap all the major happenings and discuss their impact on 2020. Join Mark Popolizio and Sid Wong as they address important topics such as:
- Section 111 updates
- impact of new WCRC and CRC policies
- increasing conditional payment and U.S Department of Treasury demands
- navigating new WCMSA policies
- sorting out the latest on LMSAs
- “double damage” rights for MAPs
- key 2019 court decisions
- keeping an eye on the other “M” - Medicaid
