Workers’ Compensation and Disability Case Management
CCM employs a system of early case intervention to prevent lost time and aggressive case management for any work related injury or disability. Early case intervention enables the nurse case manager to assist the employee through the claim and recovery process. CCM establishes early and frequent communication with employers, employees, medical providers and insurance carriers to expedite diagnosis and medical treatment, and develop successful return to work strategies. Implementing this method allows for prompt intervention when confronted with any barriers for recovery or return to work.
Reasonable Workplace Accommodations Assistance
Do you struggle with how to handle requests for accommodations and how the accommodation process should work?
CCM is the solution! CCM works with the employer, employee and physician to ensure that your organization provides reasonable, necessary, accommodations to qualified employees with disabilities.
Proprietary System for tracking Planned and Unplanned Absences
We understand the necessity of tracking disability absences and accommodations regardless of the source of the disability. CCM has created a proprietary tracking and reporting system that produces reports delineating all light duty, modified duty, and accommodations granted to employees.
Development & Implementation of Individualized Return to Work Plans
CCM builds a collaborative relationship between the injured or disabled worker, their supervisor, claims adjuster, healthcare provider and risk manager to create an individualized return to work plan for each employee; this provides an excellent foundation for a successful return to work program company wide.
Special Requests
CCM provides management services for a wide variety of requests falling outside of typical health plan, workers’ compensation and disability plan benefits. We are experts at reviewing medical information to justify or refute claims made by employees.
