Medical Treatment, under workers compensation, has many complex disability guidelines that are best interpreted by a job injury lawyer. In California in 1997, more than 20 percent of the time, injured workers had to sue to obtain workmans compensation disability benefits. This rate doubled since 1985 and was more than four times the national average.

California workers compensation State audits show that in 20% of these disability cases, the insurer did not properly notify workers of benefits, and in one of every six cases disabled workers were not paid all the money they were owed.

Doctors and other health care professionals find that their treatment recommendations have been second-guessed by claims adjusters. Injured workers are told that they cannot go
to the physician of their choice. Everyone despairs over the paperwork.

You have a right to a caring and professional physician of your choice, and Abusive treatment from the claims examiner is unacceptable.

It is also illegal for an employer to discriminate against an injured worker because they have a work injury or are pursuing workers' compensation benefits.
