For those unable to attend the 2020 CLM Workers Compensation and Retail, Restaurant & Hospitality Conference, you can read Risk & Insurance’s recap of the panel discussion on an increase in the use of technology in this article: “COVID-19 Sparked a Technology Surge in WC … And Shined a Light on Even Greater Risk” with Bardavon Chief Clinical Officer, Dorothy Riviere.

The article shares the panelists’ views on how technology specifically is changing the landscape of the Workers’ Compensation Industry.

Riviere states, “In our space, in healthcare, these technologies are coming more and more (evident) every day, with wearables, motion capture, and the integration of technology into the medical and rehabilitation environment.”

With the massive increase in technology usage, Riviere explains that the data interpretation must be meaningful and determine if an injured worker is healed to return to work. Without interpretation, the data is meaningless.
