Sanford expands services
Sanford Health now provides a 24-hours-a-day, seven-days-a-week phone triage care system for occupational medicine services. The program benefits businesses by helping to lower medical costs and reducing lost time away from work.
Through OccMed 24/7, Sanford's occupational medicine clinicians will provide triage care over the phone for various on-the-job injuries including muscle injuries, cuts, inhalations, chemical exposures, cold injuries, thermal burns and more.
Sanford's experts will evaluate the injury and provide recommendations on the best course of action to take. This may mean making an appointment and being treated the next day or taking the injured employee for immediate care in urgent situations. Case management for ongoing treatments will also be provided. Businesses contracting for this service will only pay when the service is used.
OccMed 24/7 is available as part of Sanford's network of occupational medicine clinics with locations in Bemidji, Minn., Bismarck, Dickinson, Fargo and Minot, N.D., and Aberdeen and Sioux Falls, S.D., as well as a network of specialty physicians at Sanford Health.
