Today at the IAIABC annual meeting

I’m attending the annual meeting of the International Association of Industrial Accident Boards and Commissions this week, and will be doing a bit of reporting from the meeting.
Today’s topics include a discussion of the impact of health reform on work comp; a session on the implications of the court settlement ending the use of AWP as a pricing benchmark for prescription drugs; much discussion of technology including EDI, e-billing, and claim reporting; review the latest in impairment ratings; and a discussion on potential negative effects of medical management programs.
Back with more later this morning…
