Workers' Compensation Benchmarking

OHA’s Workers Compensation Benchmarking program is recognized by members as a primary source for educational events and peer-to-peer sharing of safety management best practices. With the focus on workplace safety, Ohio hospitals have posted average injury rates below the national average.

OHA BENCHMARKING REDUCES WORKERS' COMPENSATION CLAIMS

OHA's Workers' Compensation Benchmarking program has helped numerous hospitals focus on worker safety by examining the costs and volumes of claims and comparing their data to other participating hospitals.
