Workers’ Compensation


 

Scheduling Just Got Easier with a Guaranteed Faster Response Time!

Let us help you establish new claims easier. At Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center, we provide prompt, high quality medical care to the injured employee and give the employer the information they need to return employees to work quickly and safely. Our comprehensive workers’ compensation medical care program focuses on three elements: timely access, communication, and consistency.

Access/Treatment

Thousands of Nevadans are injured at work each year. Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center physicians will see an injured employee within 24 to 72 hours after an injury. Many of our physicians will offer same day appointments to their schedule to provide medical care for the acutely injured employee. Combined with 2 locations in Northwest Las Vegas and Henderson, our network of physicians deliver efficient and effective treatment for all musculoskeletal injuries.

Communication

When an employee is injured, the employer requires information quickly. Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center physicians will complete Physician Progress Reports and Appointment Notes and fax/ email the information to the employer, insurance adjuster and case managers each time an injured employee is seen by our physicians. If an employee is unable to return to normal duties, the physician will outline the return-to-work restrictions so an employee can perform modified work while the injury heals.

Consistency

You can expect to receive the same timely information after each patient’s visit regardless of the Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center location where the injured employee is seen. We have a dedicated Workers’ Compensation Department to help answer questions and maintain individual customer relationships. All of our physicians are committed to delivering the highest level of quality medical care to every patient with every visit.
