What Members Are Saying (AI-Generated Summary)

Members are discussing the challenges of obtaining training in Milliman and InterQual criteria as an individual, rather than through an employer. They share experiences of difficulty finding courses and express frustration with the lack of opportunities for non-employees to receive training. Some suggest contacting former employers for job opportunities, while others criticize the limitations of training programs offered by McKesson.

Is their anyway I can get this training as an individual or do I have to work for a company that offers training for these criteria. I do have case management and UM experience now but I feel like I am missing out on a lot of opportunities and will not be able to advance or move on to another company because I do not have experience with Milliman and Interqual criteria. I just had an interview for a great part time your/UM gig that fit my schedule perfectly, pay was great, but I don't thing I'll get it because I don't know those criteria. My company does not use the criteria but I would like to learn it to broaden my horizons. Any tips???? Thanks.

I have been in the same situation. Employers require Interqual experience, and the ones I have come in contact with won't even call you if it is not on your resume. What I have trouble understanding is, case managers are needed, but how do we get experience or training? It shouldn't be this difficult to get additional training to help us grow professionally, so we can find jobs that we are otherwise skilled to do.

InterQual fails to see the value in training employees of NON-PAYING customers, even though it benefits their PAYING customers in the long run.
