Which Doctors Can Treat You

In Nebraska, if you are injured at work, you can choose your own doctor if that doctor has treated you or an immediate family member in the past, if the doctor you need is to perform major surgery on you, or in certain cases, when the employer denies the claim or does not accept compensability.

In other cases, your employer can choose the doctor for you. Your employer must give you notice of your right to choose your doctor. In the event that you would like to change doctors, then you and your employer must agree on the new doctor; and if you cannot agree, the Court will decide for you. There are some exceptions to this when your employer is a member of a certified managed care program.

Dyer Law office is experienced in this aspect of the law and will clarify any questions you may have. Remember that insurance companies have professional adjusters and attorneys working to represent their interests and to save the insurance company money. Make sure that you are not dealing with the insurance company at an unfair advantage.
