Study Summary

This trial is testing a program to help people who are injured or ill stay employed instead of relying on disability programs.

Who is the study for?
The Ohio RETAIN trial is for people aged 18-65 living in specific counties of Ohio who have had a recent musculoskeletal injury or cardiovascular procedure, are currently working or job-seeking, and have work limitations prescribed by a doctor. It's not for those retired, with workers' comp claims, on disability insurance, substance abuse issues, legal representation, pregnancy, terminal disease or multi-system trauma.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
Ohio RETAIN aims to help individuals stay employed after an injury or illness that could lead them to leave the workforce. The program includes medical services and coordination to facilitate staying at work or returning as soon as possible. This evaluation will measure how well it works and if it's cost-effective.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this intervention involves employment support services rather than medical treatment, traditional side effects associated with medications are not applicable here.
