PORTLAND, Ore., Oct. 15, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — WellRithms, the industry leading payment integrity firm, demonstrates its market leadership with the launch of Comp42, designed to revolutionize workers’ compensation bill review by targeting the silent corrosion from inflated medical bills. This innovative approach powered by advanced analytics and physician expertise will transform prevailing medical cost complacency with a proactive solution for addressing overbilling.

Quarum continues, “We designed Comp42 to help companies successfully break the ongoing, financially draining cycle of overpayment for workers’ compensation bills. With Comp42, we aim to mitigate risk, reduce financial burdens and restore integrity to workers’ compensation billing and reimbursement. There are better results within reach for those looking to identify and combat unjustified charges that undermine the health of workers’ compensation programs.”
