Premium discounts

Our underwriters work directly with our in-house claims team when determining adjusted premium, which allows us to quote risks that other insurers either won’t or can’t quote competitively.

Most impactful factors

• Moderate to high claim frequency
• High percentage of indemnity or lost time claims
• Commitment to cooperate to improve loss performance

Requirements

• Implement loss control recommendations
• Report claims immediately
• Direct injured workers to preferred providers (where allowed)
• Accommodate flexible return to work recommendations

Comprehensive services

We focus on what matters most, where we can have the greatest impact.

Other insurers may shy away from risks in challenging industries or with a history of frequent claims, but Method actually seeks companies that can most benefit from our industry-leading services.

1 Safety & prevention

Most employers recognize the importance of safety, but struggle to implement a well- designed safety program.

• Safety is a key driver in keeping workplace injuries, claims volume, and premiums low.
• A clear safety program leads to empowered and motivated employees.
• We help design, implement, and improve safety processes and programs with regular communication, tools and systems, training, injury reporting, etc.

2 Early reporting

Early reporting of an injury (within 24 hours) is imperative to avoid deterioration of an injured worker’s condition.

• Early reporting allows adjusters to quickly investigate the claim.
• 24/7 video nurse triage can reduce costly emergency room visits, and direct initial treatment to a preferred occupational medicine provider.²
• Many states can impose fines if prompt reporting requirements are not met. OSHA also has claims reporting requirements.
• Late reporting can increase claim costs, which impacts experience mod and can lead to higher premiums.

3 Preferred Provider relationships

It’s important to establish a relationship with a high-quality provider near each employer location.

• Providers should truly understand the nature of the employer’s business.
• We assist in connecting employers with providers, and help cultivate a strong relationship.
• Injured workers benefit from a provider that understands workers’ compensation occupational medicine.

4 Flexible return to work

A successful Return To Work program gets an injured worker back on the job as soon as they are medically able.

• Injured workers who remain at home for extended periods may become disengaged, and never return to work.
• Return To Work programs allow employers to retain experienced workers, avoiding the cost of hiring and training temporary or permanent replacements.
• Increase productivity and keep claims costs low with limited roles for recovering workers. We even work with non-profits to provide meaningful light duty work when employers can’t.
