Ty Wilson Law Podcast

When you do not get to choose your own doctor after being injured, it is very frustrating.  So a common question is what if I disagree with the workers' comp doctor.  If you do not agree with him/her what are your options?

Can you change doctors?  Is it recommended?  Who will you change too?  Is there a limit on who you can choose?  We attempt to answer these questions and more.

Let us know if you have any questions about your workers' compensation claim.

Stay safe,
Ty

Hello, my name is Ty Wilson, I am a Georgia worker's compensation attorney practicing law in the state of Georgia. And our video topic for today is, what if I disagree with the workers' compensation doctor on my injuries and my medical treatment? We have a situation a lot of times where the employees are not happy with the medical care they're receiving from the doctor that has either been selected for them or they have selected through worker's compensation. What is important is that you're comfortable with your medical care.

If you're not happy with your medical care, you're not seeing any improvements and you don't feel like you are being listened to by your doctor. You have options to change doctors. Unfortunately, it's not open-ended. It's not something where you could just change doctors like you change your clothes. So what you want to do is you want to speak with Georgia worker's compensation attorney.

You want to find out what your options are and what your ability to changes is and that will depend a lot on. Is there a valid posting panel of physicians or a list of doctors? Or did you find your doctor in some other way and his workers comp paying for it? Or is your health insurance paying for it? Where are you at in the claim? There's a lot of specifics that kind of pull in the answers for a worker's compensation attorney to provide you your proper legal rights and where you are in your claim.

Thank you for listening. This has been the Ty Wilson law podcast.

Hello, my name is Ty Wilson, I am a Georgia Workers' Compensation Attorney.  I have put together these frequently asked questions in a podcast format for information only.  We do not represent you until we have a written agreement to do so. 

What recourse do you have if you are being denied medical care from the adjuster?  What really makes matters worse is some of the adjusters do not answer their phones and NEVER tell you they are going to deny your claim, they just avoid you and avoid you and avoid you hoping you will get frustrated and just get back to work. 

The only problem with this is, when you are seriously injured you can not just get back to work.  You need medical care to get better.  Listen to this podcast to find out what you should do if you are being denied medical care or ignored to the point where you think you could be denied by silence.  Stay safe, Ty.

From time to time we have people who are concerned about the statute of limitations running on their Georgia workers' compensation claim.  They know they have a claim but may not be ready to commit to hiring an attorney or the attorney may not think they need an attorney. 

Regardless of the reason, the injured worker should still protect their claim as the Employer and insurer are not there to help them and typically will not explain what the injured worker needs to do. 

Often the injured worker is on his/her own and left to learn Georgia workers' compensation law while they are injured, in pain and/or recovering from surgery and lost in the strange world of Georiga workers' compensation. 

While you can contact the Georgia State Board of Workers' compensation, they can not and will not provide you legal information.  If you require legal information you will need to contact a Georgia workers' compensation lawyer. 

If you have questions you would like answered please do not hesitate to call or text us at 912-233-1100.  Stay safe.  Ty

When you get hurt in a car wreck, the most important matter is liability and then liability insurance coverage.   If you are partially at-fault it can affect your ability to recover the damages you have.  If there is no liability insurance for the at-fault party, then it is up to you and your insurance policy to provide coverage.  If there is no insurance coverage, the claim becomes a lot more difficult to recover on.

In this podcast, we explain what a $25,000/$50,000 insurance policy means and how it may or may not affect your Georgia car wreck.

If you have questions, text or call us at 912-233-1100.  Stay safe.
