Posted At 16:14:42 07/22/2001 That is why you need to make sure like retired said. Treating doctor has to file each and every report, Insurance company will contact doctors "------". "------" will tell him "---" not to file reports if you, do not ask him to file reports. Make sure doctor is filing reports, then next step your doctor or insurance/employer will get you to the IME, those records "ARE" filed every time. because they, second opinion can "---" you will have to prove gross negligence in order to sue. It's never been done, so you the worker loses. p.s. So remember if nothing can be done by the 1st (doctor) for your injury, you do not have to go to a second opinion. thats a "fact" opinions are just that " opinions there not for treating. Also they/you know who, always will send you to a board certified doctor in the beginning..! second opinion is the terminator.. |
