In the first episode of “It’s Settled: The Ametros Podcast,” general counsel Shawn Deane will interview Jim Jones and his wife, Monica Jones, about the challenges they faced after settling a workers’ compensation claim.

“They talk about working construction for over 30 years and going from an active lifestyle to living with chronic pain,” Deane said in a statement. “And there is great insight on how to persevere through tough times and what kind of support from family, friends and companies really makes a difference.”

In the second episode, Deane and Dr. Claire Muselman, vice president of workers’ compensation for third-party administrator North American Risk Services, will discuss the elements of a successful care advocacy model. Muselman will also share communication strategies for expressing empathy with people whose lives have been disrupted by workplace injuries, and ways to arm claims representatives with the tools and technology to help them.

Ametros said it will release a new podcast episode each month.

The podcast is available here, as well as through major streaming platforms including Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
