Notes: The workplace clinic itself is not a new idea. Up until the mid-1980s it was common for large employers to operate on-site company clinics to treat work-related injuries. Many of these clinics closed because of declines in manufacturing and workplace hazards becoming less common in these sectors. The reemergence of this care model is largely an effort by employers to improve worker productivity and mitigate skyrocketing health care costs.
