If it seems that we at daisyNews are enamored of the Texas Division of Workers’ Compensation (TX DWC)’s efforts to keep providers informed, that’s because we are.
The TX DWC hosts regular stakeholder meetings and info-packed webinars and is always available to answer questions through its CompConnection service.
Even better, providers can always know when the latest event or resources become available, thanks to the agency’s email newsletter: the Division of Workers’ Compensation Digest. Read on to see why every provider who treats injured workers in Texas should subscribe.
The DWC Digest (recent issue pictured in part above) regularly updates providers on relevant developments in workers’ comp, including but not limited to:
A recent edition of the Digest features updates to the Conversion Factors used to calculate reimbursements, a redesigned page devoted to Pharmacy services, and various upcoming in-person and online training opportunities for providers, particularly Designated Doctors.
As an electronic billing vendor that helps providers navigate the endless complexities of workers’ compensation in various states, we appreciate the effort the TX DWC puts into its provider resources.
It is clear that no small amount of time and sweat goes into these trainings and publications—we would know, as daisyBill is forced to furnish such resources for providers in states whose regulatory agencies apparently can’t be bothered.
Providers can subscribe to the Digest on the Texas Department of Insurance website (subscription pop-up in the lower right corner).
