In workers’ compensation, durable medical equipment is often treated as a downstream logistical task. But by shifting engagement upstream — starting at surgery approval — claims organizations can unlock better recovery experiences, smoother transitions, and more efficient claim outcomes.
Claims leaders see what AI can do: faster decisions, better outcomes for injured workers, new leverage for adjusters. What they’re discovering is that capability means nothing if employees don’t trust it. Adoption succeeds or fails with each action in the gap between the promise of success and fear of the unknown.

Market capacity and pricing fluctuations mean organizations should take more time to calibrate their risk management strategies. Earlier this year, AXA XL created an alternative risk solutions center of excellence to help clients build and act on robust approaches.
Missed health care appointments can derail recovery and drive up claim costs. Addressing transportation gaps and language barriers is critical to keeping injured workers’ recovery on track.
