[QUOTE="trplnkl, post: 383168, member: 13254"] It's pretty simple, work related injury....Workers Comp claim. You can go to the doctor of YOUR choice provided that doctor accepts WC claims. The company's insurance carrier has to pay reasonable compensation to the doc. The company can make you see their doc before you are released to go back to work and they have to pay for that also. The first Doc you see regarding an on job injury it the treating Doc of record and stays that way unless you go through the proper channels to change. Managers have been known to tell you incorrect things to keep a lost time accident off the books. Your next step is to get the union involved to make sure you are protected as the contract and the law allows. [/QUOTE]
