In Kansas workers' compensation, a registered medical management vendor, typically a nurse case manager, files this report when closing a medical management file. It states the reason for closure, such as return to work, release with or without restrictions, a carrier request or a vocational referral, and certifies that the job is within the worker's medical restrictions.

Good to know

  • Kansas has no state physician report or work-status form; treating physicians report in narrative, and this case-manager form is the Division's only clinician-facing report.
  • Companion form: K-WC-R 93-2, the Vendor Referral Report. The current revision is 11-16.
  • The Division also posts a Neutral IME Professionals List, which is a roster of examiners rather than a form to complete.
