CXO7 Compensation Seven Impact Points Benchmarking Model

S.C.O.R.E. Scientific Claims Operational Risk Evaluation

CXO7 built the Seven Impact Points Model to assist C-Level executives and their risk managers to benchmark the effectiveness and performance of their workers compensation programs with accurate and intelligent information.

Workers compensation claims administration management is operating at 2 Sigma. That means there are 308,000 defects per million opportunities (DPMO). The insurance and healthcare systems, including workers compensation, have been built on complexity and inherent dishonesty. The industry still lacks standards of practice and standardized naming conventions for services, processes, coding, data reporting, etc. The system is broken. The major companies in our industry (status quo) have built their business models to economically benefit from this complexity and lack of standardization and poor performance.

Most C-level executives agree that you cannot manage what you cannot measure. The SCORE System analyzes and measures the seven key components of a workers compensation program and their weighted economic importance of critical factors affecting workers compensation losses. It then compares and benchmarks them against industry best-practice. The model incorporates econometric and mathematical calculations to derive a score based on zero (0) and one hundred (100) points. Zero (0) represents no positive impact on workers compensation costs; one hundred (100) represents highest impact.
