October 24, 2025 | 9:15 AM - 2:30 PM
Workers’ Compensation is rapidly evolving, and today’s healthcare professionals face complex challenges that require proactive strategies, practical tools, and stronger collaboration across teams. This free, in-person seminar is designed to equip Fund Members with the knowledge and skills to navigate emerging risks, prepare for the unexpected, and build resilience across their organizations.
Through a combination of expert-led sessions and interactive discussion, attendees will explore three focus areas:
- Hot Topics in Workers’ Compensation — Stay up to date on the latest developments affecting workers’ compensation claims while exploring the key factors that determine compensability. Learn essential elements of claim investigation and discover how they influence the effective management of workers’ compensation claims.
- Functional Capacity Evaluations (FCEs) — Gain a clear understanding of Functional Capacity Evaluations (FCEs) and their role in workers’ compensation. Learn who is responsible for ordering, conducting, and interpreting these evaluations, and review the methods used to measure functional capacity. Discover how physicians apply these reports to set work restrictions to support safe, effective return-to-work strategies.
- Workplace Violence Prevention and Preparedness — Examine the latest workplace violence statistics and the increasing impact on healthcare facilities. Learn how organizations can proactively prepare for potential incidents and apply effective prevention strategies to foster safer environments for both staff and patients.
By the end of the seminar, attendees will leave with actionable strategies to evaluate and manage claims more effectively, strengthen workplace safety initiatives, and build a more resilient workforce prepared to meet today’s challenges head-on.
