Pharmacy insight for claims, medication risk and service improvement. 

Medilens helps insurers answer medication questions in individual workers compensation claims, and helps organisations improve pharmacy services, governance and operations.

03

Is use reasonable, necessary and connected to the accepted injury?

Typical review time: 5–7 days

Insurers & Self insurers

Hospitals & pharmacies

Regulators & policymakers

Two ways Medilens supports healthcare organisations

We support insurers with independent medication assessments and healthcare organisations with pharmacy advisory services to improve safety, governance and operational performance.

CORE SERVICE

Medication Analysis: one workers compensation claim

For  insurers and legal teams needing independent answers on liability, recovery, risk or treatment direction — for a single claim.

SECONDARY SERVICE

Advisory Services: pharmacy systems and departments

For aged care, government and healthcare organisations needing independent advice on strategy, operations, governance, risk or service design — at facility or portfolio level.

The primary service: workers compensation medication review 

Short, practical support for insurers when medication questions affect liability, recovery, duration, risk or claim direction.

CORE SERVICE

Pharmacy Medication Analysis

Single-Claim Medication Review
We analyse one workers' comp claim to give you a definitive, unbiased answer on liability, future risk, and treatment necessity—so you can decide whether to approve, deny, or settle.

Liability

Is the insurer responsible?

Management

Are medicines helping?

WHAT INSURERS GET

A clear answer that can be used in a claim decision.

• Rationale for funding decisions

• Medication risks, necessity and appropriateness

• Practical recommendations: fund, question, optimise, monitor or escalate

Medication analysis follows the insurer’s decision pathway.

A. LIABILITY DECISION

Is the insurer liable for the current  medication regimen? 

For workers compensation and other insurance pathways, the first analysis helps teams understand whether current or proposed medication use is reasonable, necessary and connected to the accepted injury or claim context.

◉ Rationale for funding decisions

◉ Appropriateness, necessity and medication risk

B. MEDICATION MANAGEMENT

Medication Isn't Working. Now What?

Once liability is accepted, medication management focuses on stalled recovery, long-term prescribing, multiple prescribers, complex regimens or medicines that are increasing risk without obvious improvement.

◉ Multiple prescribers or pharmacies

◉ No improvement despite prolonged treatment

When a medication review makes sense

Medication analysis: from referral to report.

This is the workflow for the core workers compensation medication assessment service — after the review trigger is identified and before advice is used in the claim decision.

Ready to action

01

Understand the question

We identify whether the referral is about liability, ongoing management or both.

02

Analyse the current medication regimen

A pharmacist reviews clinical context, prescribing pattern, risk, expected benefit and decision relevance.

03

Return usable recommendations

The outcome is written to support action: fund, question, optimise, monitor or escalate.

SECONDARY SERVICE - ORGANISATION lEVEL ONLY

Pharmacy advisory beyond individual claims.

This sits apart from single-claim Medication Analysis. Use Advisory Services for pharmacy department strategy, operations, due diligence, audits, governance and service design across corporate, government, aged care or healthcare organisations.
