Streamlined Recovery Pathway

The Habit Health clinical team are on a mission to streamline the recovery process for staff who have been injured at work.

It’s no secret that the current health system is often siloed and lacks connection between different medical disciplines. If you have team members that are injured, getting them back to work can be tricky.

In response, our team have developed a Streamlined Recovery Pathway, that helps staff to return to work faster, reducing compensation days and rehabilitation costs.

Pathway clients have seen dramatic improvements in key metrics including return to work times, reductions in compensation days and average claim costs.

So how does it work?

The process starts with the appointment of a dedicated Health Navigator who arranges a review by a senior physiotherapist alongside a musculoskeletal specialist or orthopaedic surgeon.

The patient is given a clear diagnosis and agrees to a rehabilitation plan which includes both work and personal goals. The Health Navigator then communicates and coordinates with all health providers, third-party administrator (TPA), and the client’s manager to ensure a comprehensive and clear recovery journey.

This pathway improves upon the current model where patients move between service providers, all of whom develop their own rehabilitation plans. The Health Navigator ensures that the patient is fully informed, every step of the way and that the employer receives regular updates on progress.
