Abstract
In today's litigious society, case managers should have their own malpractice insurance to protect their assets, experts say. Attorneys cast a wide net and often include anyone who has interacted with the patient in malpractice lawsuits. When CMS' new discharge planning guidelines go into effect, case managers will be vulnerable to Lawsuits if discharges are unsuccessful. The hospital's legal counsel will not necessarily represent the case manager's best interests, which is why case managers need their own malpractice coverage.
