Charles Taylor proudly congratulates the Kentucky Association of Counties Workers’ Compensation Fund (KACo WCF) for receiving the inaugural 2024 Theo Award. This prestigious honor recognizes KACo’s remarkable efforts in improving workers’ compensation through the launch of their 24/7 nurse triage program.

Revolutionizing Injury Management

KACo’s nurse triage program has set a new standard in workers’ compensation by ensuring immediate access to care for injured employees. With the key components of the program being 24/7 access to licensed nurses, this service enables prompt evaluation and guidance following a workplace injury. This timely intervention not only reduces complications but also ensures better outcomes for workers while minimizing risks for employers. Within the first year of implementation, the KACo WCF led to a 72% reduction in medical bull review costs contributing to overall lower medical expenses.

The Theo Award celebrates organizations that showcase leadership and innovation in risk management, and KACo’s forward-thinking approach to injury care made them a deserving recipient of this recognition.

Leadership and Dedication

This achievement reflects the dedication and leadership of KACo’s team, including Jeremy Head and his colleagues, whose hard work has made the nurse triage program a success. Their commitment to enhancing care for injured workers has positioned KACo as a leader in workers’ compensation innovation.

A Proud Partnership

As a proud partner of KACo, Charles Taylor celebrates their success and shares in their commitment to improving injury management solutions. The award-winning program aligns with our mission to drive better outcomes for injured workers and create safer workplaces.

Congratulations again to KACo and Jeremy Head for their well-deserved recognition at the 2024 Theo Awards!
