Voice of the Provider – Innovation thru Failing Fast

Voice of the Provider is a collaboration between Brooks Rehabilitation and WorkCompCollege.com and the name defines its purpose. Many stakeholders in work comp do not understand or appreciate all of the various clinical providers that help an injured employee return to and stay at work. Whether recovery from the injury / illness is easy or hard, there are clinicians along the way that utilize their education, expertise and experience to help.

In this 3:05 episode, Josh relayed a key takeaway from WorkCompCollege.com’s technology track at the 2024 WCI conference. Greg Hamlin of Berkley Industrial Comp brought up a key focus for his team – fail fast. Try something new (aka innovate) and decide quickly whether it works. If it does, keep doing it. If it doesn’t, document what you learned and then move on quickly to the next option. In other words, don’t keep doing it and hoping for different results.
