Case Manager Pre-Conference Town Hall 

Join us for a pre-conference Case Manager Town Hall focused on key updates to the Tennessee Workers’ Compensation Case Management Rules (Chapter 0800-02-07) that took effect late last year. These updates clarify expectations for case managers and may directly impact your day-to-day work managing claims and coordinating care.

in the Convention Center side of the hotel

No CEUs will be offered for this town hall. Registration to the conference is not required and is not included.

  • A deep dive into C33 & C34 forms: Detailed clarification on filing requirements, the 30-day company transfer deadline, and task-only exemptions.
  • Updated meeting and communication timelines: A review of the 14-day (catastrophic) and 21-day (non-catastrophic) face-to-face requirements and new virtual meeting guidance.
  • Live Q&A with Bureau staff: An open forum to address questions about case management updates.
