Ohio's Bureau of Workers Compensation (BWC) and the world of Workers Compensation revolves around three entities, the BWC, the Employerr and their Managed Care Organization (MCO). A Managed Care Organization in the Workers Comp field manages the care and cost associated with those types of claims, claims that have to be approved by the BWC.
Ohio Law allows Employers to select providers for medical coverage, or utilize a MCO to deliver the quality care that their injured worker deserves. MCO's assist in reducing costs, providing quality care and their focus is to help bring that injured worker back to health and return them to work as quickly and safely as possible.
MCO's utilize a network of providers to provide care, having their own provider network. They use techniques to help ensure the quality of service provided and reducing costs, which include: formal utilization reviews, quality improvement programs, and using the provider networks to reduce costs, negotiate a more reasonable fees and creating financial incentives for providers to practice more efficiently.
There are an array of Managed Care Organizations (MCO's) that provide services to Employers in Ohio. They range from large, to mid-sized, to small companys that can provide a different set of services and will always have their pros and cons. Yearly reports come from the Ohio Bureau of Workers Comp (BWC) to make sure employers are always informed in regards to the standing of each of MCO in Ohio. This is called the BWC's MCO Report Card, and it gives an overview of each MCO and how they all compare.
The factors that go into the report card are: the amount of Employers/Companies serviced by the MCO, the amount of new claims the MCO receives, their turn around time to submit the new claim to the BWC, and their average Return to Work date for the injured worker.
