Summary
A leading provider of managed physical medicine services for workers comp organizations "The Company" utilizes zPaper’s fax automation capabilities to distribute a high volume of documents to individual patients in a timely and efficient manner.
Overview
The Company is dedicated to providing innovative solutions to promote quality care, and return-to-work oriented treatment for patients through its’ national network of professionals - physical therapists, occupational therapists, and chiropractors with expertise in treating work-related injuries. Their clients include the nation’s leading insurance carriers, self-insured employers, third-party administrators, state funds, managed-care organizations, and case-management companies.
With this extensive network of clients and patient base, the organization's provider relations department is responsible for sending out a tremendous volume of documents tagged with private patient data to accurately associate specific organizations and individuals.
