“Technology in the workers’ comp industry has not advanced as quickly as in commercial health. There’s great value in early intervention and advocacy programs, but it’s important to marry that with technology,” said Dr. Deitz.

ChronWell, a technology-enabled injury management program for the workers’ compensation industry, announced today that Dr. David Deitz, Chief Medical Advisor, will present at the National Workers’ Compensation and Disability Conference at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, NV on November 6-8, 2019.
Dr. Deitz and Santiago Martin Jr., CEO of Trilogy Personnel & Land Management, will lead a session titled, “Leveraging Technology to Connect Pre- and Post-Loss Strategies.” In this presentation, they’ll discuss an agricultural employer’s case examples, highlighting how they are benefiting from the use of ChronWell’s technology platform coupled with human empathy in their workers’ compensation program. In particular, they will focus on the need for predictive models to identify risk factors and how leveraging intelligence gathered through cloud and mobile technologies paired with artificial intelligence allows companies to respond quicker to the needs of injured workers and other stakeholders in the claims process. This gives employers the ability to mitigate risk, efficiently manage injuries, and build advocacy programs that improve injured worker outcomes.
“Technology in the workers’ comp industry has not advanced as quickly as in commercial health. There’s great value in early intervention and advocacy programs, but it’s important to marry that with technology,” said Dr. Deitz. “Technology has an important role to play not only in administering and managing these programs, but in providing employers with different options and data management to improve outcomes, decrease litigation and boost overall satisfaction.”
Dr. Deitz has 25 years’ experience in managed medical care, healthcare outcomes evaluation and reporting, and utilization management systems in both workers’ compensation and group health. In addition to being ChronWell’s Chief Medical Advisor, he is also the Principal of David Deitz & Associates in Westport, MA. Dr. Deitz completed post-graduate training at the University of Miami and Harvard Medical School and is board-certified in Internal Medicine.
The session will take place on Wednesday, November 6 at 2:30pm in the Islander room of Mandalay Bay. In addition, ChronWell will be exhibiting on the floor at booth 1109. To set up an appointment at the conference, email chronwell@matternow.com.
