About the Case Management Module

The Case Management module provides a complete information management system for occupational and non-occupational (disability) cases. The module allows you to record and track an employee’s progress related to occupational and non-occupational injuries including their absences, work restrictions, and expected return date. Cority automatically calculates days and hours of work lost and captures:

For each case a unique number is assigned that is used to track all activities associated with the case including information captured in the Clinic Visits module.

Cority provides integrated access to two external guidelines:

A To-Do List works in combination with Activity Tracking to capture a tickler list and to record a chronological history of all activity related to a case. This includes user-defined case activities and transaction dates, the names of providers, specific costs (where applicable), case notes and recall dates.

A series of standard and user-defined reports are available including the time lost by employee, case type, provider, and department; differences between expected and actual return to work following an absence, showing actual work days saved; case return to work statistics compared to disability guidelines; and reports of case management activities including cost and time data. You can also track and manage OSHA reporting requirements.

Cases can be delegated to another case manager permanently (e.g. if the original case manager has left the company) or for a specific time period (e.g. to cover a vacation or other absence).
