WorkCompRecap: Training & Treating!

September 14, 2022 - WorkCompWire

Today’s issue of WorkCompRecap features the announcement from the Tennessee Bureau of Workers’ Compensation that it has launched a new training program for physicians that provides specialized training needed to treat injured workers, which may not have been part of their traditional medical training.

The new Certified Physician Program (CPP) is a free, online, self-paced, training course designed to teach physicians additional skills to help them successfully treat and evaluate injured workers, and includes the BWC-created training course, a comprehensive exam, and training in the AMA Guides, 6th Edition that is required to apply for certification. Benefits for participating physicians will include enhanced fees for initial and follow-up visits and for giving final impairment ratings; more exposure for workers’ comp business via an online directory; Continuing Medical Education Credits; and training that satisfies requirements for seeking an appointment to the Medical Impairment Rating Registry.
