Telephonic case management

Telephonic Case Management is a program that acts as a liaison between the physician and the employer and/or the insurance carrier. The staff monitors the progress of the injured worker, keeps the employer or the insurance carrier informed at all times of the injured worker's progress, return to work status and treatment recommendations. Often times the staff serves as a source of information for the employer as well as a communicator to the physician relaying information from the employer.
