Streamlined Care For Injuries Needing Specialist Care
What is Specialist Care?
When a complex, work-related injury occurs, the best treatment might require referral to a specialist. Given the nature of an injury, how it occurred, and its impact on future use, a specialist might be the physician best suited to offer advanced expertise to improve restoration of function. Specialists can also recommend and perform procedures or surgical intervention that might help to reduce downtime, and improve the immediate and long-term outcome for the injury.
Specialized Benefits for Patients
At Concentra, our specialists will work closely with you to manage your treatment process and to provide a comprehensive treatment plan that will get you back to work and life faster. Following a referral from the primary Concentra clinicians to an affiliated specialist physician, your care can continue to be managed at Concentra throughout the entire life of the case—ensuring continuity of care, high quality and timely treatment with efficient case closure. We also communicate with your employer, when necessary, to keep everyone updated on your progress.
