Hey there--
First time on this site. I am a CCM-- passed the exam in Oct. '06-- very relieved to get it done! Just left my last employer-- doing telephonic CM for Medicaid members. Now looking for something different. May try Disease Management. Anyone out there do Disease Mgmt. or other??

Hi,
I also just obtained my CCM in October 2006........whew was the hardest test I ever took (yes even worse than boards and my CCRN). I am an oncology case manager for a HMO.

hi--
this is to #58. the company I just left did CM and DM. Ideally, we were supposed to be able to move the client from a CM to a DM (for intensive teaching needs)-- it didn't always work that way. The last 2 people hired have been called CM/DM's. They are supposed to 'do it all' and I think that is the trend.
