By opting out of the
Texas Workers’ Compensation Act, the Nonsubscribing employer loses
significant medical cost containment benefits enjoyed by employers
insured under the Act, such as:
-
certain
managed healthcare practices utilized by workers’ compensation
insurance carriers, such as access to preferred provider organizations,
utilization review, case management and medical bill audits.
However,
by utilizing Texas Healthcare Foundation ("THF"), the
Nonsubscribing employer can regain most of those benefits. THF is
a Texas-based organization providing medical cost containment to
responsible Texas employers as an integral part of their successful
Nonsubscriber programs. We now have over 3,000 cooperative medical providers in our
THF Cooperative Medical Provider Directory.
Some key benefits of THF are:
-
Providing
customized managed healthcare services to ensure
appropriate and cost
effective utilization of healthcare treatment while expediting
the employee's return to productive work. When diagnosis
and treatment are appropriately monitored by unbiased specialists,
patients most often receive better medical care and employers do not incur unnecessary charges.
-
Quickly
processing all of an employer's occupational injury medical
bills according to THF's contractual agreements and/or fair and reasonable
medical fee guidelines, generating accurate "ready to pay" bills, and with
no balance billing to the employees.
- Saving significant
amounts off every $1 billed by medical providers. Savings are
currently averaging an amazing 50%+ off billed charges!

earns a fee only when employers realize actual savings.
There are absolutely no additional or hidden fees. Just ask:
