Leave of Absence Administration
Do you know how many of your employees are absent today?
Are you comfortable that your leave of absence process is consistent and compliant?
Are your absence and health management programs working together to reduce costs?
At Innovative Care Systems, Inc. (ICS), we have changed the paradigm for leave management. Rather than put administrative functions such as leave tracking at the core, our program puts your employees at the center -- guiding them through all aspects of their health and benefits while they are away from work.
Health and productivity improvement is no longer a buzz word but an outcome based on specific, planned intervention. ICS becomes the delivery system by acting as a concierge to coach employees through all aspects of the changes necessitated when they are out on leave.
ICS provides a comprehensive approach that addresses the three essential elements of absence management:
- Job Protection
- Pay while on Leave
- Health and Productivity Improvement
ICS consistently tracks absence and assures compliance with all employer, state and federal Family and Medical Leave (FMLA) policies.
ICS answers the most commonly asked questions by an employee going on leave. Since a large percentage of leaves are employees’ own serious health conditions that qualify as short-term disability, it is more effective and efficient to integrate the administration of these programs.
ICS acts as a concierge to coach and guide employees through all aspects of any type of leave and coordinate the health management services available to the employees. As a result, ICS helps to improve workforce health and reduce the frequency and duration of leaves. Our value proposition is predicated on our ability to reduce health care costs by improving the utilization of your health management efforts.
