Episode Synopsis

Featuring Kirra Benedetti, Independent Workers’ Compensation ConsultantIn this episode, we welcome Kira Benedetti, a seasoned workers’ compensation expert with over fourteen years’ experience navigating this complex system. Kirra began her career as a case manager, gaining hands-on experience in the trenches of claim workflows, and gradually moved into roles within insurance organisations. Throughout our conversation, Kirra pulls back the curtain on what really matters for providers working in the workers’ compensation space. She explains how insurers evaluate cases, how case managers triage and manage complex claims, and what red flags providers should be aware of from day one. Here are just a few of the golden tips Kira shares in the episode:Think like a case manager and insurer simultaneously. By anticipating what questions will ultimately be asked—by insurers, adjusters, or auditors—providers can frame their notes and plans more defensibly.Stay proactive with communication. Don’t wait for the insurer to ask—offer updates, communicate barriers early, and flag when progress isn’t happening.Leverage the “win-win” mindset. Kira encourages providers to frame recommendations in terms of both patient benefit and cost effectiveness—because the insurer needs both sides of the story.Whether you're a treating clinician, rehab provider, or simply someone working with injured workers, this episode offers practical, field-tested advice to help you stay ahead of pitfalls and build stronger, more defensible claims. Give it a listen—you’ll find takeaways you can apply immediately.Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/kirra-benedetti-7587b21ba/This episode is brought to by Clinic1Website: https://clinic1.ai About: Clinic1 is an Australian-developed, AI-powered practice management platform built for allied health clinics.
