Certified Disability Management Specialist (CDMS) is a national certification, not a Wyoming license. How a Wyoming court weighs it is decided case by case under the forum's expert rules; this page covers the credential's scope, the Wyoming venues where a plan is examined, and our planners who hold it and serve Wyoming.
The CDMS certifies professionals in disability management: coordinating medical care, benefits, and return-to-work planning for injured workers within workers' compensation and disability systems. In life care planning the credential is relevant to workers' compensation plans, where the planner must understand fee schedules, claims administration, and how future care interacts with the benefit system.
Wyoming civil claims are tried in the District Courts. Workers' compensation is provided through the state fund administered by the Department of Workforce Services, with contested claims heard by the Office of Administrative Hearings or the Medical Commission.
Outside the civil courts, the Wyoming Department of Workforce Services, Workers' Compensation Division is the forum where a plan is most often examined in Wyoming. KW Life Care Planning CDMS-credentialed experts apply nationally recognized standards while accounting for Wyoming's practice environment.
CDMS-credentialed experts provide testimony in Wyoming's courts, where expert qualification is determined case by case.
Highest court: Wyoming Supreme Court. Federal venues: D. Wyo..
