Workers Comp Victim review, 2006-07-31
This book should be offered to injured workers after their first visit with an attorney who will represent them. It should also be among those on the "required reading" lists in every law school, where attorneys may enter the Workers Compensation practice. The accuracy of descriptions for various categories, (ie. Chronic Pain, etc.), are extraordinary. For the first time in the eight years that I have been dealing with the system, I was able to read what amounted to an all encompassing, yet clear and accurate description of my own dillemma. Truly an excellent book.

More details, 2004-09-08
Strategies in Workers' Compensation, written with the healthcare medical professional in mind, describes the nuts and bolts of workers compensation. The book details the history, laws, various stakeholders, costs, and problems encountered by healthcare providers. An emphasis is placed on the "difficult patient" with regard to management techniques for doctors, insurance companies, and employers. In addition, Strategies in Workers' Compensation offers reference material to aid in understanding the complex system.

Practical and invaluable for the professional., 2004-06-23
In today's world of workers' comp fraud, denials, and dilemmas, Strategies is a welcome resource for the professional. Indeed, from its historical review to methodologies to anecdotes, this work is definitely a must-read textbook. While Dr. Sall's writing style makes the book and quick and easy read, even for the beginner, the book's most important attribute is its real world--practical--relevance.
