Whether complementing an existing program or standing up a fully integrated approach, Sedgwick's suite of managed care solutions provides a new choice. 

Sedgwick offers a range of managed care services from which clients can choose. Cost containment solutions encompass medical bill review, complex review, nurse audit and bill negotiations. Within clinical care, solutions include nurse triage, case management, surgery nurse services, behavioral health, pharmacy management, transition work services, vocational return-to-work services and utilization review.
