In today’s healthcare environment, managed care nurses are part of the core foundation of the medical management team. The role of the nurse has evolved to beyond just providing direct patient care, into being an integral part of the care coordination process as a whole.  We see nurses in every facet of business now: from hospitals and managed care organizations to disease management and pharmaceutical companies.  Now, while the focus remains on improving outcomes, the nurse takes on a new approach - controlling costs through modifying behaviors of providers and patients, educating the patient on preventative methods and self-care techniques, and ultimately improving both quality and patient outcomes through providing collaboration among all parties within the care coordination process.  For more information on corporate partnerships, contact us.
