Smart drug choices

We all have a stake in making sure workers receive the most effective health care for their condition, and prescription drugs are no exception. Drug prices can vary significantly and price does not necessarily correlate with efficacy.

As part of SAIF's mission to make workers' compensation insurance affordable, we are partnering with Oregon State University's College of Pharmacy to conduct a targeted prescriber education program. OSU will analyze physician prescribing patterns and contact physicians who may benefit from education about drug effectiveness. Their recommendations are voluntary.
