What is a Case Management Nurse?

A Case Management Nurse is a Registered Nurse who coordinates patient care across the continuum — working with physicians, families, insurers, and post-acute providers to ensure the right care at the right time.

Case management nurses are central to reducing readmissions, managing length of stay, and connecting patients with home health, rehab, and community resources after discharge.

FAQ

Case Management Nurse questions, answered

What is the difference between a case manager and a discharge planner?+

Discharge planning is one function of case management. Case managers also handle utilization review, care coordination, and longitudinal patient advocacy.

Many do — especially telephonic case managers employed by health plans, workers' comp carriers, and population health programs.

How is case management billed?+

Patients generally do not pay directly. Case management is funded by hospitals, insurers, employers, or government programs as part of care delivery.

What's the difference between CCM and ACM?+

CCM (Commission for Case Manager Certification) is multi-discipline; ACM-RN (American Case Management Association) is nursing-specific with a hospital focus.
