BEDMINSTER, N.J., March 1 -- GettingHired, LLC and Disability RMS today announced the signing of an agreement to beta-test the new FastTrackRTW product line developed by GettingHired, LLC. Disability RMS is the nation's leading provider of turnkey disability risk management products and services.
The FastTrackRTW product will aid insurance companies in the short-term disability, long-term disability and workers compensation sectors to better manage return-to-work programs. The product is uniquely designed with a robust set of career services tools for claimants and injured workers as well as a tracking module for caseworkers to monitor and encourage career tool utilization by claimants and injured workers.
GettingHired, LLC chief executive officer Thomas Capato stated, "Every insurer in the short/long-term disability and workers compensation sectors has the goal of accelerating return-to-work timeframes for its employer customers' claimants and injured workers, reducing reserve levels, improving revenues, increasing brand awareness and improving claimant/injured worker satisfaction. FastTrackRTW provides a unique technology and services solution to meet these objectives. Disability RMS enjoys a sterling reputation within the industry and is widely recognized for its depth of knowledge in the long-term disability arena, breadth of product offerings and exceptional customer service. This agreement to beta-test FastTrackRTW with Disability RMS will provide an opportunity to further refine the product - and we have every expectation that we will not only meet but exceed both our own and our clients' goals."
Kathleen Serunian, vice president of claims for Disability RMS, stated, "Continuous process improvement is a critical part of our business at Disability RMS. We are always seeking new solutions to optimize our service offerings. FastTrackRTW will allow us to more proactively help our claimants in return-to-work activities while simultaneously achieving better insight and analysis for our claims and caseworker staffs as well as our carrier clients."
Gregory J. Dulac, vice president of business development for Disability RMS, stated, "We believe the FastTrackRTW tool will set the next benchmark of return-to-work services within the industry, and will provide current and future Disability RMS clients with a real competitive advantage."
