June 3, 2010 – Encinitas, CA – ODG Treatment, including the Official Disability Guidelines, can now be purchased in a format that makes the guidelines accessible on your eReader, including the Apple iPad, Amazon Kindle, and Sony Reader.

The “ODG for eReader” can be purchased alone, or is available at a discount to new and current subscribers along with their ODG Treatment Online subscription. The benefit of “ODG for eReader” is that it allows all the mobile freedom that a workers’ comp and non-occupational disability professional needs when doing paperwork, research or reviews while traveling or in the field. It comes in a format that is easy to load on electronic readers, and just as easy to view and search. “ODG for eReader” includes both the treatment and disability duration guidelines, as found in the ODG Treatment set.

“I was hoping ODG would become available in a format that would allow me to access the treatment guidelines on the go, especially since I am oftentimes away from my desk conducting onsite forensic, expert witness and utilization review, as well as doing outpatient consulting,” said Dr. Richard Kaplan of Uniontown Medical Rehabilitation, P.C. “I purchased ‘ODG for eReader’ as soon as it became available. The file loaded with no problems and it works great including color and searching. ‘ODG for eReader’ has made it easier to bring the tools I need wherever my work takes me.”

Users should note that the “ODG for eReader,” like the hard-copy version of ODG will be published annually. For this reason, users are encouraged to purchase the ODG for eReader in addition to their online subscription to ODG, which is updated with new procedures and references as soon as they are reviewed.

The 2010 “ODG for eReader” is available for $45 with the purchase of ODG Treatment Online ($325), and $45 as an add-on for current subscribers. It is also available for $260 as a stand-alone.

The 2010 release in the ODG product line (including the 15th edition of Official Disability Guidelines and 8th edition of ODG Treatment in Workers Comp) provides the most up to date evidence-based medical treatment and disability duration guidelines to improve as well as benchmark outcomes in workers' compensation and non-occupational disability. ODG 2010 is based on an aggregate of over 10 million cases, including CDC and OSHA, referred to as the "most direct form of evidence that can be offered in court" under the Federal Rules of Evidence, plus over 2 million medical records from actual workers’ compensation and disability claims.
