Nurse Case Management

“Getting the most out of your healthcare investment.”

Frequently individuals faced with illness and hospitalization are frightened and anxious, and they don’t always understand everything the treating provider has to say — or know what questions to ask. Our nurse case managers are perfectly suited by education and temperament to ensure good communication amongst all relevant parties.

Identifying the need…

Group Health programs generally don’t have adjusters like other insurance programs. They most often have claims processors, which for the most part, have no one to ensure the care a patient receives is timely, effective, and coordinated with all treating providers. Most cases move forward with no coordination, resulting in them taking on a life of their own, wasting a lot of precious time and money.

The Role of a Nurse Case Manager

The ultimate goal of the nurse case manager is to assist the patient in returning to optimal health as soon as possible. This is why their role can be so important in reducing costs associated with hospital stays, surgeries, and a number of chronic illnesses. They ensure specialty referrals are made promptly, that the patient understands the treating provider’s instructions, and orders for prescription drugs are followed correctly to enhance recovery times  — and that saves money for everyone!
