The cost of workers' compensation health care has been a challenge during the past few decades. Various programs have been initiated on the local, state, and national levels to address this issue. The purpose of this article is to examine some of the programs that have initiated cost control measures. Most of those published claim successful outcomes. The initiatives reviewed herein were instituted at medical centers in Maryland and Pennsylvania, at casino hotels in Nevada, at an occupational health clinic in Ohio, at an electrical union in New York State, and at an insurance company. Initiatives in Minnesota and Washington State are also described. Sharing the outcomes of initiatives may allow such research to be translated into action on a broader scale.
在过去几十年里，工伤赔偿医疗保健费用一直是个难题。地方、州和国家层面已启动了各种项目来解决这一问题。本文旨在研究一些已采取成本控制措施的项目。大多数已发表的文章称取得了成功的成果。本文所回顾的举措分别在马里兰州和宾夕法尼亚州的医疗中心、内华达州的赌场酒店、俄亥俄州的一家职业健康诊所、纽约州的一个电气工会以及一家保险公司实施。文中还介绍了明尼苏达州和华盛顿州的举措。分享这些举措的成果或许能让此类研究在更广泛的范围内转化为实际行动。
