Inaccurate Testing For Workers’ Compensation

A recent study conducted by One Call Medical (OCM), a Preferred Provider Organization and leader in workers’ compensation diagnostic testing, found that some medical testing may be inaccurate, resulting in poor treatment, lost work, unwarranted surgeries, and hundreds of thousands of lost dollars. The study revealed that nearly 40 percent of Neurodiagnostic testing, such as Nerve Conduction Studies (NCS) and Electromyography (EMG), could be inaccurate.

The following article gives an in-depth look at this research, which was based on studies performed by providers other than One Call Medical network. The article shows a three-fold solution to the problem proposed by One Call Medical, including creating a credentialed network and developing quality standards, discusses misdiagnosis and erroneous treatment plans, and gives a glimpse of the statistics and costs associated with inaccurate Neurodiagnostic testing. The article also speaks with One Call Medical’s medical director, Dr. John Robinton, who is also a chairperson of the Neurodiagnostic Medical Advisory Board.
