description This case study addresses a fundamental for HR leaders - how to get injured employees (and by extension sick ones) back to work and keep them there. In July 2015, the State of Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation (BWC) embarked on a 16-county pilot program for workers with knee-only injuries called the Enhanced Care Program (ECP). The program gave physicians more flexibility than traditional Ohio workers' compensation rules, simplified the treatment authorization process, and encouraged comprehensive treatment planning. ECP got injured employees back to work 30% faster and saved $2.1 million. HR executives can apply ECP's principles and metrics not only to workers' compensation programs, but also to their employee health plans too to help drive down healthcare and absence costs while increasing organizational productivity.
