Workers' compensation subrogation is an area of claims practice requiring the marriage of multiple disciplines. To succeed, the workers' compensation subrogation specialist must be adept at understanding the file, so there are coordinated efforts and organization of the settlement plan when the files converge. This team member must also be well-versed in liability review and the statutes regarding workers' comp subrogation in each state. This is in addition to possessing a working knowledge of the negotiation process and anticipated response and application of the law in various situations.
