Genex helps assess claimants and manage care for fully insured disability plans, self-insured disability plans and workers’ compensation insurers.
Objective Medical provides independent assessments of claimants’ health and ability to function.
Objective Medical was founded by Richard Nelson, a former Washington state Medicaid director. Nelson and his son, Steffen Nelson, will continue to run Objective Management, and Steffen Nelson will become part of the Genex management team, Genex says.
