Centers of Excellence Clinics and select Gold tier network providers in Fulcrum's ChiroCare network are invited to participate in the federally funded statewide study for injured or ill patients that are on restriction or not able to work.

MN RETAIN (Retaining Employment and Talent After Injury/Illness Network) is working with injured or ill Minnesota workers who are on restrictions and not able to do their usual work, or providing support so they can return to work as soon as possible. 

The goal for Fulcrum providers is to refer 312 accepted patients by May 2024. The hope is that each provider will refer one patient every other month. Patients who are accepted and assigned to the intervention group will receive a $100 gift card per patient.

Dr. Deb Zurcher will be supporting Fulcrum chiropractic providers on this initiative until May 16, 2024. Reach out to Dr. Zurcher at d.zurcher@fulcrumhealthinc.org for any questions or materials.

Fulcrum was awarded subrecipient participation in the MN RETAIN Phase 2 study, a federal grant study funded by the U.S. Department of Labor and the Social Security Administration. The Minnesota study is a collaboration among and between the following organizations: Governor’s Workforce Development Board, Mayo Clinic, MN Department of Employment and Economic Development, MN Department of Health, MN Department of Labor and Industry, and Workforce Development, Inc.  

“Just wanted to mention how thankful I am to have MN RETAIN as a resource for our patients. One of the patients I referred has been connected with some really amazing resources. He tells me MN RETAIN has been excellent in their communication and support every step of the way.”

Dr. Hans Thurmer

View your customized provider portal today by entering your unique email address!

As a provider, what do I need in order to access my customized portal?

• Each provider is required to provide Fulcrum with a unique provider email address which will become your user name to log into the portal. This email address cannot be shared with other providers.
• If you would like to add a billing company, admin, or anyone else to view your portal account, please use the Add A Team Member feature available within the portal.

Why do I need a unique email address to access my provider portal?

• For privacy reasons, each provider must have his/her own user name and password for logging in. The portal uses the unique email address you provided to Fulcrum for the provider portal user name.
• Since the portal is customized to each provider, it is critical for privacy reasons that the provider decides who is allowed to access and view his/her account.
• Additional team members identified by the provider can view the customized portal by allowing permission in the Add a Team Member feature inside the portal. This feature also allows the provider to remove any or all permissions at any time.

If I need to change my email address that I have already provided to Fulcrum, what do I do?

• Please email Credentialing@fulcrumhealthinc.org for a change to your email address and then once you receive a confirmation of the change, please create your portal account.

When should I create my portal account?
