HCPSIT publications
- Solutions is a quarterly HCPSIT newsletter to help keep participants on top of the
latest information on workers' compensation.
- Here's the 2007 HCPSIT Annual Report.
- Here's an
order form for the "Back Injury Prevention Guide for Home Care Agencies."
Underwritten by a grant from HCPSIT, this is the only such guide designed and written specifically to
help home care agencies prevent the number one cause of employee injuries and workers' compensation
claims--back injury. Every home care agency branch office should have at least one copy. There are
volume discounts as well as discounts for HCP members and HCPSIT participants. HCP members may order online at
the HCP Bookstore.

A key advantage of the self-insurance concept
is the potential to create actual savings by reducing claims and injuries. The most
successful and financially stable self-insurance programs have
succeeded in creating safer workplaces by instituting strong and comprehensive safety
programs. In-depth knowledge of a particular industry (home care, in
the case of HCPSIT) and comprehensive data about that industry creates
the opportunity to establish "best practices"--techniques and programs
that really work and succeed in reducing injuries. Reductions in the
number and severity of accidents and injuries translates directly to the
bottom line of the provider by keeping costs and contributions low.
A proven track record has meant that HCPSIT is now a model for
self-insurance groups and a success story that has few, if any, rivals
in the field of workers' compensation. The Trust has provided low-cost
coverage for providers, advanced customer service and kept the risks of
self-insurance to a minimum.
To find out how much you can save, call the program
administrator for the Trust, Program Risk Management at 800/958-7475.
