MEMIC.

MEMIC is a specialty workers' compensation insurance company with an office in Manchester, N.H. Like its parent company, Portland, Maine-based MEMIC, it focuses on serving customers with innovative workplace safety programs and compassionate, efficient management of claims.

The company has appointed several prominent independent insurance agencies in New Hampshire that serve as the company's salesforce. These agencies were selected because of their expertise and their support for MEMIC's philosophy toward workers' compensation.

The company has a staff of safety specialists who come not from the insurance industry but from industries they now serve. MEMIC's experts in construction, manufacturing, health care and the hospitality industry understand the practical application of workplace safety. By developing realistic solutions to safety, MEMIC can help its customers through complex problems that will enhance, not hinder, production. Ultimately, these solutions reduce the cost of lost time due to workplace injury.

When an injury does occur, MEMIC puts its team approach to work for the employee and employer. Rather than spending valuable time fighting a claim, MEMIC does a quick investigation of the injury, pays what is appropriate and helps start the recovery. In the case of a serious injury, MEMIC assigns case managers who are nurses who work as advocates to get the worker appropriate medical treatment. And, if treatment includes prescription drugs, MEMIC issues a special card so that there is no out-of-pocket expense to the employee.
