Fraud and Abuse in Workers’ Compensation
Workers’ compensation reimbursement changes have incentivized a handful of unethical companies to launch programs and products with little to no therapeutic value. These products are designed to produce large reimbursements, costing the system millions of dollars, leading to reimbursement cuts and restrictions on workers’ comp medication dispensing in some states.
PharmaLink has never allowed these products to be dispensed through our system and we continue to achieve positive results with our customers as a result. Our billing solution has industry-leading acceptance rates from payors.
PharmaLink’s workers’ compensation dispensing solution is the perfect complement to your existing practice by providing additional revenue and improving patient satisfaction.
