- Needlesticks and Worker's Compensation
- HR and GME have worked to make the reporting of needlesticks easier for you and the residents. The State is now going to consider needlesticks for the residents to be an emergency and they can get treated wherever they are. The resident still has to call Corvel afterward and can select option #2 (the entire Option #1 process has been eliminated for the residents). The coordinator needs to then call Corvel and select option #2 to verify and then complete the attached simplified form and send to Jenna in HR. All this must be done within 7 days or the resident may become personally liable for any charges. The form and phone numbers are on the GME website under policies and procedures. - Promotion and Dismissal Policy

- In accordance with Tenn. Code Ann. § 49-7-130, airfare reimbursement is limited to
economy fare. Economy refers to any class that is not business or first class. Employees
may purchase business or first class fare but will be
reimbursed the cost of economy fare. In such cases, the employee must provide supporting documentation for the cost of the standard economy fare by obtaining a Comparison Quote of the price difference from the same source, using the same carrier, and on the same day the employee purchased the original ticket.- If an economy fare is not available, the employee should purchase the ticket through World Travel Services Inc, who will document the lowest cost fare available, and the employee will be reimbursed the amount of such fare.
- When purchasing a "premium economy ticket" "business select" or "premium select," employees should consult with World Travel Services Inc. because some of the airlines classify these as business or first class fares.
- ALL receipts must be itemized showing detailed charges and method of payment.
