SOUTH CAROLINA BILLING FACTS · NURSE CASE MANAGERS SUPPORTED TODAY

South Carolina workers’ comp case management billing —
what the market really is.

Your week

Your week, in South Carolina’s documents.

Public-employer claims on one side, private carriers on the other, and one caseload carrying both.

  • 7:50 a.m.
    Calls on a State Accident Fund file and two carrier files.Payer belongs to the claim, so nothing gets mixed at invoice time.
  • 10:40 a.m.
    Appointment attended, wait time, 48 miles.Itemized as they happen.
  • 1:55 p.m.
    Monthly reports for two payers.Both built from the same entries.
  • 4:20 p.m.
    Invoices out, receivables aging separately.Because public and private payers do not pay at the same speed.

Every one of those rows is typed once, as it happens. The daily log writes itself as you go, the weekly narrative log builds in your own Word template, a CMS-1500 fills with the right units and the right payer block where a payer wants one — and where your state bills on its own form or an invoice, the dated, timed, priced lines that go on it come off the grid, and the receivable is tracked from the moment the bill leaves. The whole chain →

Two kinds of payer

The State Accident Fund and the carriers keep different calendars.

South Carolina’s State Accident Fund covers public employers; private carriers cover the rest. Most case managers here carry both, and the two do not pay at the same speed or expect the same paperwork.

Payer is a property of the file rather than something you remember while invoicing, which is how two aging clocks stay honest.

The payer directory

Who pays you in South Carolina.

One check, many claimants. Whichever of these names is on the envelope, the check covers a dozen files at once. You record it once, tick the bills it pays, and anything short is flagged with the exact gap and the original form attached, ready to rebill. How that screen works.

Billing addresses and submission preferences go stale faster than any page can keep up, so we publish them only where we keep them current — today that is Ohio’s nine MCOs. Your South Carolina payers and their submission preferences get set up during onboarding, from your own files.

What is genuinely for sale here today

Case files, adjusters, mileage, receivables.

Nurse case management billing works in South Carolina today: activity grid, the priced lines your invoice is built from, aging by payer, and mileage and wait time on their own lines.

The activity grid

Field visit, telephonic call, wait time at the appointment, the miles there and back — logged once, with the claim number, the adjuster and the referral source attached as you type.

The log behind the bill

A weekly narrative log per case file, dated and grouped, reproducing your own Word template — and where a payer wants a CMS-1500 the software fills one. It does not write an invoice document today: the dated, timed, priced lines that go on yours come off the grid.

Aging by payer

SC State Accident Fund (public employers), the carriers and the TPAs, each with billed, paid and still-owed, and an aging list that names who is sitting on your money.

It is the same week an Ohio vocational rehabilitation case manager works, in different nouns: case files instead of claimants, adjusters instead of MCO coordinators, billable hours and mileage instead of W-codes. Thirty-odd billable touches a day either way, and the same four documents behind every one of them. The nurse case manager page has the whole workflow.

Questions, answered.

Is there a private voc-rehab market in South Carolina?

Not a meaningful one. Neighboring North Carolina and Georgia both run registries and are genuinely different markets. North Carolina · Georgia.

Can it separate State Accident Fund work from carrier work?

Yes — payer belongs to the file, so each has its own invoice, receivable and aging clock.

Is there a fee schedule for case management here?

Not one we have verified, so no rate is printed.

What do you configure during onboarding?

Your invoice templates, folders and naming, payers and rates, from your own filed copies.

Where does my data live?

On your computer, in your own folders.
