Registered nurses review disability claim records and write concise clinical summaries of the medical documentation under review. The work includes identifying impairing diagnoses, relevant comorbidities, diagnostic findings, restrictions and limitations, and answering referral questions based on the chart. Some assignments may also require calls to treating providers, and reports are completed using the Dane Street portal with a short turnaround time.
