As a utilization review (UR) nurse, you help ensure that patients are receiving the appropriate level of care while being mindful of expenditures to your employer, whether you work for a hospital, managed care facility, or insurance company.
Wondering where you might work in this role? The federal government requires that organizations participating in Medicare and Medicaid conduct utilization reviews. This means that you’ll find a variety of workplace options for UR nurse jobs.
Education and Certifications for Utilization Review Nursing Jobs
Before you can work in utilization review, you must complete a nursing program from an approved institution. Once you pass the NCLEX and receive your license, you’ll want to gain clinical experience in direct patient care. Registered nurses may also want to pursue experience as an RN case manager.
While likely not required for most jobs, specialty certification can increase both your knowledge and also your leverage when it comes time to look for a new utilization review nurse job. Certifications include:
Health Utilization Management Certification (HUMC)
Put some effort into customizing your utilization review nurse resume to each job posting. For instance, if an employer is seeking a candidate “proficient in insurance prior authorizations and medical necessity criteria for different payers,” include that phrase in your resume. This helps demonstrate that your skills are a good fit for the job.
In your UR nurse cover letter, explain a bit about what drew you to this particular position. Remember, you don’t want just any old job — you want this job. To reinforce this sentiment as you apply to UR nurse jobs, search the employer’s website for their mission statement and see where your values overlap.
