"It's a beautiful day and I have been thinking about all the things I have to be thankful for. One of the biggest is the help and support from 3-hab after my bicep injury. I am an outreach naturalist. My hands and arms are my livelihood, so when they were injured in an accident at work, you can imagine my fears and concerns. The first doctor who examined me gave me a lengthy prognosis and said, "This is a workers comp injury and that takes more time." We talked to 3-hab and they got the ball rolling fast. Before I knew it, they set me up with a fantastic surgeon to discuss options and set a date for my surgery. All within two weeks! My doctor said workers comp claims hardly ever move this fast. My surgery was a success thanks to the fantastic surgeon and the get-it-done attitude of 3-hab. 3-hab called me a myriad of times to make sure everything was getting done and checked in to see how I was doing. They were very personable and professional. I felt at ease knowing that 3-hab was taking care of my claim. When you're injured, it’s nice to know there's someone in your corner. Thanks for being there 3-hab!"
"I would like to thank 3HAB for the diligent and timely service they have provided to Dewey's Pizza over the last several years. Your partnership has made the administration of Workers Compensation claims much easier and more efficient. We appreciate your support and guidance over the years and look forward to many more to come."
"Ford Development Corp. has been working with 3-Hab for over 20 years. We participate in the BWC $15k program to help manage claim costs. 3-Hab has been a great partner helping us manage claims under the $15k program. They will check provider bills before we pay them to verify we are paying the bill according to the BWC fee schedule. This has been a great service to help us with claim costs. We have had a good experience working with 3-Hab and would highly recommend them to other employers."
I would like to say how happy the City of Reading is with the service we receive from 3-hab Ltd. We have always had excellent service; quick response and your staff keeps us very informed on our claims. Claims are processed in a timely manner and the staff is great to work with. It is always a pleasure to work with you all at 3-hab. Thanks for a great partnership"
"Just a note to let you know that Ceco Concrete Construction has been in the 15k program since 2018 and 3-Hab has been such a great help in managing that program. When I receive a bill from the provider, I forward it to 3-Hab and usually within a day or so I receive an adjusted EOB down coded to the BWC fee schedule. All I must do is submit that to our AP Department and they pay the provider indicated. I retain a copy of the EOB and the payment is recorded in our payable system in case of an audit. 3-Hab's quick response helps to eliminate my having to follow up to receive bills in a timely manner. Thank you 3-Hab so much for making workers compensation easier and keeping my desk clear.
