NWCDN Workers' Compensation in a Post-COVID World

Join the National Workers' Compensation Defense Network (NWCDN) and the WorkersCompensation.com Center for Education Excellence for a live virtual seminar on November 12, starting at 10:00AM E.S.T. This year, due to COVID-19 concerns, the organization has partnered with WorkersCompensation.com to bring you two virtual stages, offering panels that will discuss a wide range of topics relevant to the workers’ compensation professional. The “main stage” features, among other presentations, one from a director from the CDC discussing the Future of Work in a Post-COVID Environment, as well as a panel featuring Dr. Christopher Brigham and Alan Pierce, Esq. debating the value of The Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment. Sprinkled in between panel session, several leading industry experts will provide brief What I Learned During COVID segments.

Elizabeth will be moderating the panel, Living in a Virtual World, which will discuss telehealth, remote claims administration, ergonomic home offices, and more.

During the event, there will also be a “second stage," where regionally grouped NWCDN member-panels will discuss emerging trends in their region’s workers’ compensation system. Finally, there will be a virtual “lounge” where individuals can have their questions answered by NWCDN members. Registration can be found on the NWCDN webpage or at Workers’Compensation.com.
