Note that this service is only for ART Payroll employees who are injured at work and should not be used for any other personnel, clients, or customers of your company. Medcor provides triage suitable for most injuries, but is not a 911 system for life-threatening situations.
When Employee Injury Occurs: If a supervisor is on-site, the injured employee should immediately contact the supervisor, and the supervisor initiates the phone call together with the injured employee. If no supervisor is available, the injured employee should contact Medcor's triage service directly. Likewise, if the injured employee is not able to make the call, then the supervisor should call Medcor on the employee's behalf. To be most beneficial the call should be made as soon as possible after the injury occurs. Please identify that ART Payroll is the employer. After calling Medcor, please notify ART Payroll that Medcor has been informed of the injury.
