Date: 2026-04-13
Source list: `ventress-medical-arkansas-pass-three-2026-04-12.csv`

## How to use this report

This is a practical Arkansas-first outreach stack for Ventress Medical's likely service mix:
- nurse case management,
- telephonic case management,
- catastrophic case support,
- care coordination,
- IME/DME coordination,
- return-to-work support,
- legal nurse consulting and record review.

Priority was based on four simple factors:
1. direct control over workers' comp or injury-case spend,
2. likelihood of needing recurring case-management support,
3. Arkansas footprint and relevance,
4. ease of starting a real conversation from public contact info or obvious fit.

## Segment 1, direct buyers

These are the highest-value targets because they likely own claims outcomes, authorize services, or strongly influence vendor selection.

| Priority | Target | Why it matters | Best opening angle | Public contact |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Association of Arkansas Counties Workers' Compensation Trust | Covers all 75 Arkansas counties plus related entities. Broad claim base and direct comp relevance. | Position Ventress as Arkansas-based support for complex claims, catastrophic cases, return-to-work coordination, IME/DME logistics, and telephonic nurse follow-up. | 501-372-7550 |
| 2 | Agricultural Council of Arkansas, Ag-Comp SIF | Clear workers' comp and claims-management fit across agriculture and rural employers. | Lead with rural case coordination, catastrophic support, and helping reduce friction in treatment and work-status management. | Bobby_Davis@ajg.com; David_Crigler@ajg.com; tjh@la-ag.com, (501) 375-1000 |
| 3 | Arkansas Transit Association Workers' Compensation Self-Insured Trust | Transit injuries often require equipment, work restriction, and treatment coordination. | Emphasize transportation claim complexity, return-to-work support, and coordination across providers and adjusters. | (501) 372-8900; (501) 614-1568 |
| 4 | Arkansas Municipal League, Municipal Workers Comp | Municipal risk pool with statewide breadth and repeated injury workflows. | Lead with scalable municipal claims support and an Arkansas-local partner for complex or time-sensitive files. | 501-374-3484 |
| 5 | CCMSI | TPA with Little Rock presence and managed-care orientation. | Present Ventress as local overflow or white-label nurse case management capacity in Arkansas. | (800) 252-5059 |
| 6 | Public Employee Claims Division | State employee claims function, likely high-complexity public-sector files. | Offer medical management support and help on difficult-to-coordinate claims, especially where communication gaps delay recovery. | Public web contact route only |

### Direct-buyer notes
- These accounts should get first-call and first-email attention.
- Best titles to ask for: claims director, workers' comp administrator, risk manager, trust administrator, medical management lead, managed care lead.
- The public-sector pool/trust targets are likely the strongest fit for recurring work, not just one-off referrals.

## Segment 2, channel partners

These targets may not buy every case directly, but they can open multiple doors at once or create repeat introductions.

| Priority | Target | Why it matters | Best opening angle | Public contact |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Arkansas Self Insurers Association (ASIA) | Best statewide network into self-insured employers and workers' comp leaders. | Seek introduction opportunities, meeting attendance, sponsor visibility, or member education positioning. | info@arkselfinsure.com, (479) 264-8236 |
| 2 | Risk Management Resources, a division of Cadence Insurance | Relevant trust and TPA administration role. | Position as trusted Arkansas case-management support for overflow, difficult files, or local coordination. | No clear public direct contact in source file |
| 3 | Arkansas School Boards Association | Strong path into school districts and public-sector claim relationships. | Offer support for school-employee injury coordination and complex claims where communication and return-to-work are hard. | arsba@arsba.org, 501-372-1415 |
| 4 | Arkansas State Chamber of Commerce / Associated Industries of Arkansas | Statewide employer access. | Ask about introductions to self-insured, labor-intensive, and high-frequency-injury employers. | (501) 372-2222 |
| 5 | Arkansas Trucking Association | High-fit industry with injury frequency and work-status complexity. | Lead with transportation injury coordination, DOT overlap, and return-to-work support. | Public web contact route only |

| 11 | Fast Pace Health Occupational Health, Jonesboro clinic | Urgent-care plus occupational-health touchpoint. | Good for awareness-building and local referral possibilities. | (870) 604-3597 |

### Channel-partner notes
- ASIA is the best multiplier target in the file.
- Occupational clinics are useful because they see claim friction early, especially delayed treatment, communication breakdowns, and work-status confusion.
- For association targets, the real win is not a hard sell, it is access, credibility, and introductions.

## Segment 3, legal and referral targets

These are best for legal nurse consulting, medical chronology work, catastrophic injury support, and medically complex plaintiff or comp files.

| Priority | Target | Why it matters | Best opening angle | Public contact |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Hart Law Firm | Tight workers' comp fit, likely understands medical-record intensity. | Lead with legal nurse consulting, medical timelines, record review, and support on disputed treatment or severe injury files. | (501) 978-5444 |

| 11 | Friday, Eldredge & Clark LLP | Large business firm with comp-related relevance. | Defense and employer-side relationship play. | 501-376-2011 |
| 12 | Quattlebaum, Grooms & Tull PLLC | Employer-side and business litigation overlap. | Use as a relationship target, not a first-wave priority. | 501-379-1700 |
| 13 | Mitchell Williams | Strong statewide presence but likely longer sales cycle. | Suitable as a secondary defense-side business-development target. | (501) 688.8800 |

### Legal-target notes
- Hart Law Firm is the cleanest first legal target because of tight workers' comp alignment.
- Rainwater and Duncan are strong because they combine likely volume with severe-injury exposure.
- Defense firms are worth pursuing, but probably after claimant-side firms and direct comp buyers.

## Recommended messaging by segment

### Direct buyers
Use a practical cost-and-outcomes tone:
- Arkansas-based responsiveness
- support on complex or stalled claims
- better coordination among injured worker, adjuster, provider, and employer
- return-to-work acceleration
- telephonic plus catastrophic support

### Channel partners
Use a partnership tone:
- local delivery support
- overflow capacity
- trusted Arkansas referral option
- educational or member-value angle
- no-disruption complement to their existing workflows

### Legal targets
Use a case-support tone:
- legal nurse consulting
- chronology building
- medical record organization
- severe injury and damages support
- helping attorneys move faster through medically dense files

## Practical next steps

1. Start with phone plus email on the top 8 accounts.
2. For public-sector pools and TPAs, ask specifically for the person over workers' comp claims, medical management, or risk.
3. For ASIA and other associations, aim for introductions, membership visibility, and event participation, not an immediate service close.
4. For law firms, keep the ask small: offer a short intro call and one concrete use case, not a full capabilities dump.
5. Track responses by segment because buyer language will differ sharply between claims, associations, and law firms.

## Important caveats

- This report is based on the existing public-source prospect files in the Ventress folder, not new external verification.
- Several targets are best reached by role rather than generic contact channels.
- Some entities may function more as relationship targets than immediate buyers, but they are still commercially useful.
