Employers who offer an HCO as the medical care delivery
system for treatment of enrolled injured workers gain an additional
period of medical control (from 30 days without an HCO, to 90-180
days with an HCO). |

Nurse Case Managers coordinate the entire process by keeping the
employer, employee, claims adjuster and physician informed and working
together to provide appropriate care and reduce medical costs, and
return to work plans to reduce the cost associated with temporary
and permanent disability. |
