Rising Medical Solutions Releases Comprehensive Study
The 11th Annual Workers' Compensation Benchmarking Study Report has been released by Rising Medical Solutions. This report represents over a decade of focused research into the realm of claims management, an area crucial to the insurance industry.
Understanding the Frontline Experiences
This year, the study surveyed more than 1,300 frontline claims professionals. Their insights form the backbone of the report, revealing significant industry trends, challenges, and the evolving landscape of claims management. The voices of these hardworking individuals have not typically been part of broad industry analyses, making this year’s focus particularly relevant.
Focus Shift Due to Pandemic Influence
This is the second time the study has centered on these frontline professionals, a notable shift since the pandemic began altering work practices. By capturing how these professionals view their roles post-COVID-19, the report juxtaposes their experiences with those of claims executives surveyed in past years.
A Holistic View of Claims Operations
Rachel Fikes, Chief Experience Officer and Study Program Director at Rising Medical Solutions, stated, "The 2023 Report uniquely bridges the gap between leadership vision and on-the-ground realities." This dual perspective is essential for understanding the current state and future potential of claims operations.
