Advanced Practitioners and Workers’ Compensation Claim Outcomes.

Join us Thursday, Nov. 20, 2025, at 2:00 PM ET for a free 40-minute webinar on WCRI’s latest report: Advanced Practitioners and Workers’ Compensation Claim Outcomes.

With fewer primary care physicians, more injured workers are treated by nurse practitioners and physician assistants. How does this affect care and claim outcomes?

During the webinar, Bogdan Savych, WCRI senior policy analyst, will explore key questions:

• How did involvement of advanced practitioners and primary care physicians change between 2013 and 2022?
• Do patients initially treated by an advanced practitioner experience different claim outcomes than workers first treated by a primary care physician?
• Are there differences in timing of first nonemergency care, use of specialty care, medical costs, and duration of temporary disability?

This webinar is free, but registration is limited to 500 participants. All registrants will receive a copy of the webinar slides and a recording of the session.
