Become a Preferred Network Medical Provider

The providers in Beacon’s Preferred Provider Network (PPN) have demonstrated experience treating work-related injuries within the Rhode Island workers’ compensation system. In addition to exceptional and expedient care of injured workers, a Beacon PPN medical provider communicates with us as we work collaboratively to help injured workers rehabilitate to ensure a safe return to work. This could mean reviewing and commenting on job descriptions, routinely commenting on the worker’s functional capabilities in treatment notes, and distinguishing which injuries are related to work.

For further information, please Contact Us or call 401-825-2667 and ask to speak to someone who can help you become a Beacon PPN provider.
