case manager in your hospital. You have been asked to
present a class to newly employed nurses about your role,
your responsibilities and how they can collaborate with you
as the case manager. Which of the following is a primary case
management responsibility associated with reimbursement
that you should you include in this class?
A. The case manager’s role in terms of organization wide performance
improvement activities
B. The case manager’s role in terms complete, timely and accurate
documentation
C. The case manager’s role in terms of the clients’ being at the appropriate
level of care
D. The case manager’s role in terms of contesting denied reimbursements
Correct Response: C
Registered nurse case managers have a primary case management responsibility
associated with reimbursement because they are responsible for insuring that the
client is being cared for at the appropriate level of care along the continuum of care
that is consistent with medical necessity and the client’s current needs. A failure to
insure the appropriate level of care jeopardizes reimbursement. For example, care
in an acute care facility will not be reimbursed when the client’s current needs can
be met in a subacute or long term care setting.
Nurse case managers do not have organization wide performance improvement
activities, the supervision of complete, timely and accurate documentation or
RASMUSSEN COLLEGE OF NURSING NUR 2407
challenging denied reimbursements in their role. These roles and responsibilities

are typically assumed by quality assurance/performance improvement, supervisory
