7. It’s nice to work with workers’ comp
outcomes because…
Outcomes are VERY Quantified
– RTW at the same job description and PDL
or not?
– How many days passed before RTW?
– Nice, clean, and tidy!

9. Surgeon’s Perspective on a
Good Outcome
•
•
•
•
•
No anesthesia issues
No surprises during or after
No complications
Good wound healing
No post-op infection
10. But how does the story end?
Is the patient back at work?
Quickly?
At the same PDL as prior to injury?
With the same job classification?
18. Half of what is taught in medical school will be
wrong in 10 years’ time, the problem is we
don’t know which half.

21. Just for Coronary Heart Disease…
• 3600 statistical articles are published
on average each year
• Do you know how long it would
take you to keep up…?
22.
23.
24. If you read 1 article/15 minutes
You would have to read >10
articles
For 2 hours/day
7 days/week
Forever…
34. EvidenceUpdates
• A joint collaboration of
BMJ Group and the
Health Information
Research Unit at
McMaster University
• Best new evidence
tailored to your interests.
• 2-step process shrinks
~50,000 articles/year
(from >140 clinical
journals) down to the
most important 1 - 2
articles per month
= "noise reduction" of
over 99.9%.

37. And, wouldn’t it be cool if surgeons could
have their latest post-op protocol available
to their rehab-referrals?
They already do (and for free).
77. >15,000 prior-managed bills were loaded and rerun
against the ODG Treatment UR Advisor for each ICD9CPT combination on frequency, number of visits,
recommendations from ODG Treatment, and the "Bill
Review Payment (or ODG Approval) Flags" divided
into Green, Yellow, Red…
78. Green, OK to auto-pay up to ODG Codes for
Automated Approval max number of visits;
Yellow, OK to auto-pay up to 25th %tile
number of visits
Red, need to review
