The video below explains the Retaining Employment and Talent after Injury/Illness Network (RETAIN) study and how it helps workers stay at or return to work when an injury or illness impacts employment.

Thanks to the ChiroCare network providers that continue to refer patients to this important program!

As a referring clinic with the MN RETAIN study, they won the June drawing for a $500 Visa gift card!

“The partnership between the Chiropractic community and RETAIN has been a great benefit, for not only our clinic, but our injured patient base as well. RETAIN has been very welcoming and simple to use as a resource to get our patients back to work safely and as soon as medically possible. 

We look forward to working with RETAIN program in the future and appreciate their collaboration with the Chiropractic community.”

The likelihood of a patient recommending your practice is one of the top questions in determining patient satisfaction.

Here are some key strategies for improving patient perception:

• Ease of scheduling can positively impact referrals
• Provide patient education and self-management tools (bending, lifting, hot/cold, exercises, nutrition)
• Use Shared Decision Making with the patient to identify goals meaningful to them
• Use daily huddles to keep staff well trained and working together
• Be transparent with patient financial liability
• Communication skills improves care coordination, engagement, and patients’ perceptions about the care experience

The federal No Surprises Act requires health plans to verify the accuracy of provider contact information every 90 days. Fulcrum will provide more information about this requirement and what it means for you and for Fulcrum in a future communication.

Currently, your provider agreement with Fulcrum requires you to immediately notify Fulcrum of any change in your or your clinic’s demographic information, including, but not limited to name, address, phone, fax, email address, and taxpayer identification number.

Fulcrum’s Provider Portal offers a quick and electronic method for reporting changes.  Simply select the Demographic Updates tab on the home page.
