WEBINAR: Defending HIMP-1 Claims in New York
If you are receiving dozens – even hundreds – of HIMP-1 demands monthly, you are not alone. And you have options other than simply paying them!
The Health Insurance Matching Program (HIMP) process is the means through which a health insurer demands reimbursement from a workers’ compensation carrier or self-insured. While HIMP-1 demands are becoming exponentially more common, there are always viable defenses.
HIMPs can result in exposure of hundreds of thousands of dollars, sometimes even two or three years after “full and final” closure of the workers’ compensation claim. In this webinar, we will cover how to see HIMPs coming, how the process works, and how to defend against them to cut down your exposure.
Who should attend:
- Workers Compensation Claims Professionals
- Employers
- Attorneys
You will learn:
- What a HIMP demand looks like and how the process works, including initial pleadings through arbitration and potential appeals
- How you can see HIMP exposure coming and common scenarios giving rise to HIMPs (initial ER treatment, denied authorization, controverted claims, etc.)
- All applicable deadlines and defenses, with practical takeaways for how to fight back and pay only a fraction of the total demand in most instances
