The Nurse Case Managers at Medical Dynamics Associates, led by Evelyn G. Robert,  have provided in-house case management services for injured longshoremen at a large shipyard in Hampton Roads, and have managed medical care for injured vessel crew members making Jones Act claims.  They also provide the same services for municipalities, working with injured employees such as firefighters and police officers.   Their involvement in these programs has achieved measurable cost savings for employers.

Medical Dynamics provides telephonic case management, though it has learned through extensive experience that face-to-face case management yields the best results in terms of employee satisfaction and early claim resolution.
