WCB Claim Management Services - Western Canada
When WCB Claims Derail, It's Rarely Just the Injury
Modified work gets missed. Follow-ups fall through. Paperwork goes sideways. And somehow, premiums keep going up, despite your best intentions.
If Any of This Sounds Familiar, You're Not Alone:
- You're unsure how to build or manage a modified work plan that holds up
- Claims drag on, with no clear process to get them closed
- You don't have a system to track WCB activity from incident to resolution
- Injuries are being handled reactively, adding risk, liability, and cost
WCB claims don't manage themselves. We help you stay in control, protect your bottom line, and actually close the loop.
What You Get With WCB Claim Management
When claims hit, we don't just react, we manage. Our team steps in with the structure, strategy, and the follow through that your internal teams don't have time for. You get clear visibility, fast action, and claims that stay on track from day one.
Full Claim Lifecycle Management
We handle each claim from initial report to final closure, no dropped balls, no gaps, no missed deadlines.
Modified Work & Return-to-Work Planning
We build practical, defensible plans that support recovery, meet WCB requirements, and get people back safely.
Incident Tracking & Documentation
Everything's documented properly, consistently, and inline with what WCB expects, so you're always audit ready.
Ongoing File Monitoring & Escalation
We don't set and forget. Active claims are monitored, and issues are flagged early before they become expensive
Appeals, Cost Relief & Premium Support
Need to push back on a decision or recover some of the cost? We've got the experience to do it right.
How It Works
From First Report to Final Closeout, We Keep Claims Moving and Premiums in Check
We step in as soon as incident occurs, tracking documentation, coordinating modified work, and communicating with WCB so nothing stalls. While your team stays focused on operations, we manage the moving parts behind the scenes: form submissions, follow-ups, claim monitoring, and appeals.
You get a clear line of sight on every case, with expert support to reduce claim duration, control costs, and keep your WCB profile healthy.
