OhioBWC - Basics: Early Reporting
Early Reporting
Unfortunately, work-related injuries happen even in the safest workplaces. To
reduce claims costs you must take an active role in managing your injured
workers’ claims.
Statistics show that prompt claim reporting significantly reduces the cost of
workers compensation claims. Report claims immediately to your managed care
organization (MCO) which medically manages your employees’ claims. The MCO will
quickly report the claim to BWC and work with you and the injured worker to get
him or her back to the job as quickly as possible.
