The advantages of using an external Third Party
Administrator: |
ICC’s
purpose is to provide an innovative solution to third party administration
services. Within any organization the effective use of resources are
paramount to the development of profits and continued growth. With the
ever-increasing application of the Third Party Administration the ability
of an organization to separately function, independent of an insurance
company, has proven to be a successful alternative. The advantages of
using an external Third Party Administrator are:
(a). The
cost of a third party administrator is less overhead expense than paying
an insurance company. (b) Immediate access to highly trained highly
efficient professional people. People that are experienced -eliminating
the costly introduction and training curve that is inherent to the
introduction of an internal department. (c) People that are motivated to
perform at peak proficiency, immediately and continually. (d) People that
are not "ON THE CLOCK" and are paid for only what they produce -
eliminating costly down time. (e) Expenses directly related to
productivity and chargeable directly to specific problems, costs, or
incidents.(e) You control the money, not the insurance
companies.
There is
a simple choice when keeping cost to a minimum: Consider the technological
approach with ICC, THE experts in Administrative Claims.
ICC
is pleased to announce our State-Of-The-Art programs in Third Party
Administration. |
ICC
has taken on a more
conservative business philosophy.
ICC
believes the more you
educate employees about workers' compensation claims and injuries the less attorney
involvement. Some states have passed laws to simplify workers' compensation on scheduled
type injuries. This has had some effect in reducing moral and morale hazards, resulting in
lowering workers' compensation premiums for some employers. However, this has not gained
the confidence of the injured worker.
ICC
has helped companies save millions of dollars by providing
a simplified claims program so that the injured employee would understand
the workers' compensation claims process and to create a better relationship
between the injured worker and the employer.
ICC
's
programs are designed to educate the injured worker, which would again eliminate the moral
and morale hazards - reducing undue legal and medical costs to the employer.
ICC
was founded on the philosophy after working for major
insurance companies that injured workers did not understand the workers' compensation
process. This lack of knowledge promoted attorney involvement, thus creating higher
settlement costs which a greater portion went to legal fees and medical providers rather
than the injured worker. Under our administrative program, the injured worker is able to
settle his/her claim timely and place more money in his/her pocket, rather
than in the pockets of the legal and
medical medical profession . This resulted
in direct savings to the self- insured
company.
ICC handles all areas of your administrative needs, not just workers
compensation. We provide services in medical billing, medical audits,
property & casualty claims,
product liability claims, risk management, safety inspection, business
interruption as well as health/medical benefits under the ERISA Act. These benefits are paid for health related sickness, injuries,
illness, and accidents that are separate from workers' compensation injuries.
Subrogation
Our subrogation department has been very successful in the subrogation of costs paid
out in workers' compensation claims and health benefits paid to the injured worker when a
third party is responsible for the injuries.
Under the Federal ERISA Act state laws regarding subrogation rights are preempted by
the ERISA Act, allowing the self insured to recover 100% of their subrogation claims.
With the ICC
program this
initiate a savings for your company.
The services that ICC
provides are
comprehensive and affordable for the self insured.
When injuries occur, ICC is at the
accident site to perform a thorough investigation of an injury, whether it is in the work
force or outside the work force - involving and automobile accident.
As your administrator, ICC
pays for claim related to the injury or sickness and only what the claim is worth
NO
MORE NO LESS.

Our investigation establishes the
following:

report will include introductions, summaries, conclusions, exhibits, appropriate photos of
where the injury took place, medical review, medical illustration of the injuries,
illustrations of the medical procedures, recorded statements, interviews, and scaled

3) Medical Review
Our Medical Reviews are professionally prepared and presented. Our
Medical Reviews take the complicated language of the medical profession and
make it understandable for insurance companies, courts, arbitrators,
mediators and employees. We incorporate medical illustrations and photos of
the injury and of the medical procedures. These medical reports explain in
detail what happened to cause the injury, what the injury consisted of, what
is currently happening with the injury, the medical procedures for the
injury, and the future problems with the injury. We also delve into the
considerations of pre-existing conditions, aggravation of pre-existing
conditions, and activation of pre-existing conditions.
ICC
takes your investment seriously, in handling claims as a Third Party
Administrator .
With
more and more payment sources in the insurance industry becoming
increasingly highly regulated, insurance providers in workers'
compensation and, personal injury protection are increasingly
pressured to shift medical cost to health- care providers. This
Cost shifting has cost health-care providers( including the US
Government) billions of dollars each year on medical expense that
should have been paid under the workers’ compensation or auto
policy.
