What a Simple Strain Actually Costs
$30,000-$60,000 Per strain (OSHA & NSC)
WEEK 1 — Employee tweaks their back. Pushes through it.
WEEK 3 — Urgent care visit ($150–400). Now an OSHA recordable. X-rays ordered. Age-related herniation and arthritis creates fear and further decline.
MONTH 2 — Indemnity costs climb. Employee sits at home, deconditioning, afraid to move.
MONTH 3 — PT finally approved. Little progress. Referred to a specialist.
MONTH 5 — Meds. Injection. Second injection — just protocol.
MONTH 8 — $60,000 surgery. Could've resolved in week two.
Without onsite services, these costs are out the door and out of your control. Our systems have shown a 78% reduction in lost work days.
