Do You Get To Choose Your Own Doctor?
The doctor who treats you can not only have a huge impact on your physical recovery but your financial one as well.
For your first medical visit, you may be required to see a doctor designated by your employer. This Medical Provider Network (MPN) physician may not always have your best interest in mind but rather that of the entity that pays him or her.
That is why it is important to have an experienced workers' comp attorney to guide you through the claims process. This includes determining whether you must receive your treatment from an MPN doctor or from one who may be more sympathetic to the injured worker.
Our lawyers can insist that your insurer follow state guidelines that allow for a choice of medical providers within the MPN network after the first visit.
Making Quality Of Medical Care A Top Priority
Remember, you are never stuck with a treating physician. We will work hard to find one right for you and your case.
In many cases, it will be necessary to engage an appropriate medical specialist. Throughout the treatment process, we will insist on the rights you have in the work comp system to receive sufficient care. We want you to receive the quality care you need to recover as fully as possible from your work-related injuries or illness.
