Maryland Board of Nursing Approves CorVel as Provider of Workers’ Compensation Case Management Certification for Specialty Nurses
IRVINE, Calif., May 05, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — CorVel Corporation (NASDAQ: CRVL), a national provider of risk management solutions, has been approved by the Maryland Board of Nursing as the only certified Workers’ Compensation Case Manager (WCCM-RN) training program in the state. The state of Maryland recognizes WCCM as a specialty practice within the nursing field because the position requires advanced knowledge and skills to act as a patient advocate while navigating the workers’ compensation process.
After Maryland’s previous vendor ended its WCCM-RN program earlier this year, CorVel stepped up to offer its services. The company leveraged its extensive experience as a leader in nurse case management to design a comprehensive program that encompasses everything from the history of case management to insurance and payer information to the Nurse Practice Act and hospital case management.
