Episode 26: Louisville workers’ compensation attorney Scott Scheynost explains how an injured worker might be getting mislead by a nurse case manager.  We all want to trust our medical providers.  Insurance companies know this and sometimes take advantage of this fact.  That’s why they might use nurse case managers to influence decisions made between you and your doctor.  If you’ve been injured on the job, beware of the nurse case manager in workers’ comp claims.

DISCLAIMER:  It’s important to state that Scott values nurses and the often, unappreciated work they do in hospitals, assisted living facilities, nursing homes, clinics and other facilities.  This episode isn’t focused on nurses who work with patients to provide healthcare.  However, a nurse case manager plays a dramatically different roll.  They are not actually patient advocates.  In many case, they actually advocate on behalf of the insurance companies who are paying them.  As you’re about to learn, they may actually work against your best interest when it comes to your medical treatment.
