Why Occupational Therapists are Ideal for Home Assessments

A home assessment determines the details of an injured workers’ home and what their specific challenges may be within that home. However, home assessments can come in varying degrees of detail and recommendation. They can also be completed by individuals with varying professional backgrounds. In the workers’ compensation world, you can expect to see life care planners, nurse case managers, facility occupational or physical therapists, home health professionals, accessibility specialists and contractors all performing home assessments.

A More Comfortable FES Bike Option

CorLife has been at the helm of the DME ship in workers’ compensation for a long time. We have seen a thing or two when it comes to Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) bike options. There are only a few large players in this space. They are well-known, have great marketing and a strong presence at facilities of excellence. All in all, they make a great bike. The technology is on par with what is expected in a bike for someone recovering from a catastrophic injury. When the carrier hears the term “rehabilitative bike” or “exercise bike,” they know this comes with a large price tag. These bikes can range upwards of $25,000 for upper extremity (UE) and lower extremity (LE) stimulation. While completely appropriate for many injured workers, we believe they are overprescribed. They are technical, intimidating—and often confusing—to the injured worker and home health staff. This is why CorLife has been searching for an alternative and we are excited to say that we have recently found it!

Who’s at the core of a successful home modification?

Anyone in the workers’ compensation insurance industry knows that home modification projects can be complex. There are always a minimum of three parties involved: the injured worker, their insurance carrier and the home modification provider. Many times, neither the carrier nor the injured worker are well-versed in construction, making it difficult to manage the project scope, schedule and budget. All parties may have expertise in their respective areas but do not always have the ability to bring all those capabilities together for a cohesive plan or maximum efficiency. That is why CorHome offers a unique and vital person for every home modification—a dedicated construction services manager.
