\n The Request\n <\/h2>\n\t\n <\/div>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Assess a sizable workers\u2019 compensation loss evaluation and settlement negotiation<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_padding_top=”pt-1″ equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”bottom”][vc_column][vc_column_text]Company Profile
\n<\/strong>Industry:<\/strong> Metal casting and manufacturing
\nAnnual Revenue:<\/strong> $175M
\nLocations:<\/strong> 6<\/p>\n

A large commercial customer requested that Brown & Brown assess a sizeable workers\u2019 compensation loss evaluation and settlement negotiation.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_padding_bottom=”pb-2″ full_width=”stretch_row” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”bottom” css=”.vc_custom_1638896243466{background-color: #eaeaec !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_single_image image=”794″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”3\/4″]\n

\n \n

\n The Solution\n <\/h2>\n\t\n <\/div>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Investigated the charges with the customer\u2019s group health carrier before negotiating with the workers\u2019 compensation carrier<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_padding_top=”pt-1″ full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1638896256859{background-color: #eaeaec !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text]The Brown & Brown Technical Services team found that the indemnity settlement alone would exceed the customer\u2019s loss limitation. As a result, the customer was advised against offering a hold harmless agreement on the medical benefits paid by the customer\u2019s self-insured group health carrier.<\/p>\n

After the underlying workers\u2019 compensation claim was settled, Brown & Brown engaged the group health carrier to discuss recovery. The carrier stated it would claim 33% of any recovery for its efforts. Brown & Brown directed the carrier to explain the charges it would pursue in detail before making any recovery claims.<\/p>\n

Because of this request, the customer\u2019s group health carrier provided details on more than $182,000 in charges, which was nearly $6,000 less than what was being alleged by the claimant\u2019s workers\u2019 compensation attorney.<\/p>\n

Brown & Brown then engaged the workers\u2019 compensation carrier and had it verify the medical records against charges detailed by the customer\u2019s group health carrier. After confirmation, Brown & Brown negotiated a settlement with the workers\u2019 compensation carrier for 70% of the customer\u2019s group health carrier\u2019s charges.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_padding_bottom=”pb-2″ equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”bottom”][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_single_image image=”792″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”3\/4″]\n

\n \n

\n The Results\n <\/h2>\n\t\n <\/div>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Enabled the customer to recover more than $127,500 from its workers\u2019 compensation carrier and offset additional costs<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_padding_top=”pt-2″ equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle”][vc_column][vc_column_text]This resolution enabled the customer to recover more than $127,500 from its workers\u2019 compensation carrier on a claim that already exceeded the loss limit. The amount recovered offset its group health payments, and the customer avoided its group health carrier\u2019s 33% recovery fee.<\/p>\n

In addition to securing a beneficial resolution for our customer, Brown & Brown also demonstrated the benefit of not paying the entirety of the medical bills to the workers\u2019 compensation carrier. This allowed them to take advantage of the group health carrier\u2019s fee schedule with an additional 30% reduction.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”1423″ img_size=”medium” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” link=”https:\/\/www.bbrown.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Case-Study-\u2013-Workers-Comp-Metal-Casting-\u2013-Brown-Brown-WEB.pdf”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]\n
