Anthem, AIM & UM Survey
Anthem has recently contracted with AIM to provide Utilization Management for occupational therapy services. We are interested in hearing how the switch in vendors has been working for you. Please participate in this three-question survey. It should take no more than 5 minutes of your time.

Workers Comp Bill Update
The OTA Workers Comp Bill has stalled in the Assembly. Senator Tim Kennedy championed the bill in the Senate, achieving passage in that chamber for the first time.

However, the Assembly, who has passed the bill for two years straight, suddenly held the bill this year.
