Master the process of workers' compensation audits and save time and alleviate stress.
The experience of an audit can strike fear in those who are working with hundreds of claims and simply trying to do their job. A workers' compensation audit can be time-consuming and stressful. This information will help alleviate much of those concerns, so that the audit process can, and will, be much smoother than anticipated. In part, this material will explain why audits take place, what they involve, and who is affected; and will address strategies and tactics to assist you and help with preparation for both current and future audits. The sense of dread that one may feel when receiving an audit notice, or preparing for the same, will hopefully be minimized with a thorough understanding of how to master the process.
