Start to finish

How it works

Five steps, and someone owns the file at every one of them.

1 Referral & authorization The case manager or employer submits an authorization form. Our liaison confirms coverage and schedules care.
2 Intake Brief forms and ID. The worker leaves with a Work Status Report to give their employer.
3 Evaluation & diagnostics History, physical examination, and any imaging or nerve testing needed — onsite.
4 Treatment plan Conservative treatment starts immediately. Surgery is recommended only where it's clearly needed.
5 Follow-up & updates Therapy and recovery coordination, with a work status update issued after every visit.
What we treat

Injuries and how we approach them

Our surgical and occupational health teams work together on the whole injury, not one piece of it.

Injuries we treat

  • Fractures, sprains and soft tissue injuries
  • Back and neck injuries
  • Hernias and abdominal wall injuries
  • Repetitive strain and nerve compression
  • Appendicitis or gallbladder problems following injury
  • Gastrointestinal symptoms related to job demands
  • Post-operative pain and delayed recovery

How we treat them

  • Non-surgical first. Rest, physical therapy, medication and injections before an operation is considered.
  • Minimally invasive when surgery is needed. Laparoscopic and robotic-assisted technique to cut pain, scarring and time off work.
  • Onsite diagnostics. X-ray, ultrasound, MRI and electrodiagnostic nerve testing without a separate referral.
  • Built around the job. The plan accounts for what the worker actually has to do to return to duty.
Why here

One roof, faster recovery

The delays in a work comp claim are rarely clinical. They're the gaps — waiting on an imaging appointment, waiting on notes to reach the adjuster, waiting for a surgical opinion. Putting it all in one building removes most of them.

Same-day or next-day appointments
Work status updates and exam notes delivered promptly to employers and case managers
A dedicated liaison handling scheduling, authorization and paperwork

Common questions

For workers and for those managing the claim

I was hurt at work. What do I do first?

Report the injury to your employer — that starts the claim. Your employer or their insurer will usually authorize where you're treated. If MISH is authorized, call us and our coordinator will schedule you, often the same or next day. If you're unsure whether you're authorized, call anyway and we'll help you find out.

How fast do you return work status reports?

Within 24 hours of the visit, on the required forms, sent to the employer and case manager. An updated report is issued after every subsequent visit, not just the first.

Will I be pushed into surgery?

No. We start with conservative treatment — therapy, medication, injections — and recommend surgery only where it's clearly indicated. When it is needed, minimally invasive technique generally means less time away from work.

Do you handle authorizations and paperwork?

Our workers' compensation liaison does. They confirm coverage, schedule appointments, chase authorizations and act as the single point of contact between the worker, the employer, the adjuster and the clinical team.

Can you do an independent medical evaluation?

Yes. IMEs are available for second opinions and legal assessments. Contact the coordinator to arrange one.

Does everything really happen in one building?

X-ray, ultrasound, MRI, nerve testing, surgery, pain management and follow-up are all onsite at our Lenexa hospital. That's the point of the programme — the worker isn't sent across town between appointments, and the claim doesn't stall waiting for someone else's schedule.

Get the claim moving

Employers, adjusters and case managers: submit an authorization and our coordinator will confirm coverage and schedule care, usually the same day.
