Guest guest Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 , You need and the patient must take the next step and that is to report this occurrence by the employer. I and the profession simply must have you and more importantly the injured worker file a complaint with the Investigations and Sanctions Unit Compliance Section of the Workers' Comp Division otherwise it's all for not. I simply must have documentation the more the better of this BS steering of injured workers by employers to the Occ Med Centers prior to the start of the 2009 Oregon Legislative Session....I need hard copy examples to validate the problem truly does exist for injured workers which the employers and the carriers are denying is happening which is of course...oh... ya... more BS!

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 In this office, we've had a w/c case come AFTER the IME trashed her. She was told not to make a claim, not to see a doctor and then fired when she did. And interestingly enough, the day after she and I met and began 'change of physician' maneuvers, her attorney closed the case! Go figure. Ms. Bingham answers her own phone and is very interested in these types of cases. Call her. Thanks Vern, for finding this conduit.
