Implementing Occupational Medicine
Laurel Stoimenoff
THE DECISION TO INTEGRATE occupational medicine (OM) services into the urgent care setting is one that requires planning and preparation. Although care of injuries and the provision of support services such as urinary drug screens (UDSs) seem to be the logical next steps when adding services and new revenue streams, these also come with nuances that the operational, marketing, and clinical teams must be prepared to address. The after-hours and weekend access to urgent care services is attractive to patients and employers alike. Urgent care center operatrors must do their homework to ensure that entering the occupational medicine arena is a strategic and planned activity likely to produce not only new revenue but also positive earnings.
OM has been a specialty of the American Board of Preventive Medicine since 1979. It can be defined as a specialty field of medicine concerned with the assessment, maintenance, restoration, and improvement of the health of the worker through the application of the principles of preventive medicine, emergency medical care, rehabilitation, and environmental medicine.
¹ Although OM is a recognized specialty, many primary-care and urgent care physicians are highly successful in serving employers and the workforce.
