focus on education

Workplace Health has been focused on education since its inception. WPH Training Services is a more explicit extension of that for workers’ compensation stakeholders. In partnership with WorkCompCollege.com, WPH Training Services includes a variety of professional development opportunities for physician offices, employers, and insurance carrier / TPA staff. Work Comp is complicated and nuanced but once understood it is a consistent process and suite of expectations.

​

WPH Training Services contains standard training from WorkCompCollege as well as (coming soon) training customized specifically for various constituencies of WPH.

​

​​For those interested in an in-depth understanding of the work comp ecosystem, you can access the following standardized programs on the WorkCompCollege.com virtual campus:

​

• Workers’ Recovery Professional (WRP): A certification comprised of 64 courses / 50 hours of content spanning eight schools of discipline (Claims, Humanities, Legal, Medical Management, Regulatory / Legislative, Return to Work, Risk Management, and Stakeholders). This is typically selected by claims professionals who want a broad but detailed understanding of how the system works.
  
  
   

• WRP Associate (WRPA): A certification comprised of 19 courses / 15 hours of content spanning the same eight schools of discipline. This is typically selected by stakeholders involved in the work comp process but not directly managing claims (e.g. customer service representatives, ombudsman, risk managers, service providers). This is often used in the onboarding process for claims professionals who can continue their education onto the full WRP if desired.
  
  
   

• Advanced Training and Education Center (ATEC): A continuing education platform with an ever-increasing library of courses alongside detailed tracks (e.g. Mastering Medical Settlements, Technology Essentials). ATEC also includes the full State Education Program where human faculty explain not just the letter of the law but the nuances that come from experience (this currently includes 33 states). ATEC is a monthly subscription that provides unlimited access to the growing library of content.
  
  
   

• MSPCollege: Medicare Secondary Payer (MSP) compliance is a large and complex component of the work comp settlement process. The MSP Accreditation (MSPA) and Medicare Set-Aside Certified Planner (MSACP) curriculum provides expert training modules with a detailed explanation about the process. This is valuable to anyone responsible for compliance or part of a MSA program.
