Why Should You Attend:

Utilization management is a challenging process. Payers are demanding and are doing everything they can to deny payment through denial of medical necessity. Case management leaders struggle with determining the best model of case management, the optimal roles and the place where utilization management should reside—as a functional role of a bedside RN case manager or separate from that role.

Denial management requires critical thinking by RN case manager and can be both time-sensitive and time-consuming. Payer rules and regulations drive the need for timeliness of the UM process. Rules and regulations by different payers are challenging to both understand and operationalize.

The relationship of physicians to the UM process is critical. Engaged and effective attending physicians, consulting physicians and physician advisors are key in a successful case management program.
