The idea

Replaces the 'I don't… Bought by Workers' Compensation / Insurance Defense Nurse Case Manager, typically Mid-to-large P&C insurers (Hartford, Travelers, Zurich); third-party administrators handling 50–60 complex claims per nurse.
The pain
SourcedLNC hourly rates range from $38 to $163/hour (Payscale 2026) with no transparent benchmarking by specialty, case type, or geography. Both new LNCs and law firm buyers are flying blind on fair-market rate, leading to underpricing and lost revenue.
