In this webinar, guest practitioners reviewed the top three injuries and illnesses (sprains, strains, and tears) concerning lower back injuries, neck injuries, and soft tissue injuries.
Participating claims professionals, employers, and stakeholders learned more about generally prescribed treatment and recovery processes, how to identify and overcome potential obstacles to implementing the treatment plan, and had the unique opportunity to engage and ask practicing specialists questions about injuries and the recovery process.
