Question:
What if the Company Doctor Releases Me to Go Back to Work, but my Own Doctor Disagrees?Answer:
A lot of times, we’ll take a phone call from a client who is trying to decide whether or not he wants to retain a workers’ comp lawyer at this time. We always encourage them to get a lawyer involved as soon as possible. One of the reasons is, so many times, we’ll get a phone call that a client has been effectively representing himself. Then all of a sudden, he’s informed that his claim has now been denied because they sent him for an independent medical evaluation and his benefits are being cut off. They seem very surprised that despite the fact that their treating doctor believes that they need to stay off work and continue to treat that the insurance company is ignoring what their doctor’s recommending. This can happen. They’re entitled to representation and their own experts; you’re entitled to yours. It’s why you need to set your claim up immediately. Get the case referred to an arbitrator so that we can act quickly and get before an arbitrator and let him mediate that dispute basically between the competing doctors. If this is a situation you find yourself in or you want to make sure that you don’t find yourself in it, please give us a call. Let’s make sure we can set your claim up so that we can avoid that unfortunate circumstance.Do you or a loved one have questions about a workers’ compensation claim and want to know what injured workers should do if they disagree with the company doctor in Illinois?
