Task Nurse Case Management refers to focused, short-term assignments where a nurse case manager addresses a specific objective within a defined period. Unlike full case management, these assignments are limited in scope and goal-oriented.

Examples of Task Assignments:

• Coordinating Independent Medical Evaluations (IMEs)
• Attending routine medical appointments
• Conducting telephonic or in-person meetings with injured workers and employers
• Providing coverage for other nurse case managers
• Performing one-time medical assessments
• Coordinating treatment for specific procedures
• Securing necessary documentation to support return-to-work plans
• Advising on work restrictions and accommodations
• Completing medical service authorizations and forms

Upon completion, a closure report is submitted summarizing the actions taken and outcomes achieved. This approach promotes efficiency and minimizes unnecessary interventions.
