Pocono Occupational Medicine Fax Number

Ask Pocono Occupational Medicine's workers'-comp coordinator or front desk for the current fax number

Hours: An occupational-health clinic keeps employer-friendly hours — often early openings for shift workers — so the front desk can receive a fax during the workday, though the staff who process claim paperwork and records requests work standard business hours.

Getting the work status to the supervisor from Pocono Occupational Medicine

After each visit for a work injury, Pocono Occupational Medicine faxes a work-status report to the employer, the claims adjuster, and the case manager stating the diagnosis, the current restrictions, and whether the worker is on full duty, light duty, or off work. Include the claim number so the carrier ties the status to the open claim. Flag a same-day restriction change so the supervisor sees it before the next shift.

Injury reports and authorizations at Pocono Occupational Medicine

When Pocono Occupational Medicine treats a work-related injury, the paperwork is its own workflow: a First Report of Injury and a treatment authorization move by fax between the clinic, the employer, and the workers'-compensation carrier the same day. Send the injury report and the authorization together so the claim is not worked piecemeal. Flag a time-sensitive authorization so it is worked the same day.
