Rising Medical Solutions Becomes Bronze Associate Partner of WorkCompCollege.com 

Lakewood Ranch, FL (July 2, 2024) – WorkCompCollege.com, a division of Workers’ Compensation Educational Services, LLC, has announced a Bronze Associate Partnership with Rising Medical Solutions (Rising). Their mission to “make lives better” is consistent with the whole-person recovery paradigm embedded in WCC’s curriculum. 

“Through our annual Workers’ Compensation Benchmarking Study, Rising’s commitment to making lives better encompasses the entire industry,” says Rising CEO Jason Beans. “What began as an operational assessment tool has evolved into a data-backed profile of higher-performing claims organizations, a key differentiator being a greater investment in frontline employee training such as active listening and other ‘soft skills.’ Partnering with WorkCompCollege.com, whose educational focus aligns with years of Benchmark Study analysis, is a natural step in furthering the study’s mission of advancing claims management.” 

Mark Pew, Provost of WorkCompCollege.com, says, “Rising’s annual Workers’ Compensation Benchmarking Study has been a must read for me every year. The 2022 edition reported only 30 percent of frontline claims professionals were equipped to identify and/or address SDOH (social determinants of health) but suggested some specific next steps for organizations to bridge that gap. The upcoming 2023 study report indicates that 61 percent of frontline claims professionals do not know what an advocacy-based claims model is. As I read their report, it was clear what they researched is what we’re trying to address. We couldn’t be more pleased to partner with such a visionary and influential company.” 

WorkCompCollege.com is a community-driven effort designed to address those needs and will help continue the trend toward lower costs and improved results through education, information exchange, and mentorship. Educational services include three certification programs – Workers’ Recovery Professional (WRP), WRP Associate (WRPA), and Medicare Secondary Payer Accreditation (MSPA) certification programs – along with a State Education Program, the Advanced Training & Education Center (ATEC), and CompStart Onboarding. Current students and graduates represent every stakeholder in the work comp ecosystem throughout the United States. People interested in learning more can visit www.workcompcollege.com.
