Opioids to GLP-1s, regenerative medicine to medical marijuana—get a fast, evidence-based tour of the drugs driving today's workers' comp claims.

In one session, you’ll learn how to identify medication risks, reduce polypharmacy and unnecessary costs, and apply smarter pharmacy oversight to support faster recoveries. Through real case studies and clear takeaways, claims teams and nurse case managers will gain practical strategies to keep treatment focused on function—not just symptoms—from start to finish.
