Case settlement. Workers comp?!
Question:
Case settlement. Workers comp?
I had an accident on October last year, and the first dr sent me back to work lite duty then I was still on pain. I changed doctors then the other dr ordered an MRI and It showed that I had an herniated disc and the mri report explained the pain but once the insurance contacted the dr the dr changed his mind and changed his report he said I am doing very well but I am still under pain and they want to settel my case for 10 thousand. My lawyer said its a good option since the dr said I am doing very well ebven though the mri report and the independent dr report. I sense he might be on insurance side what Can I do ? I am in georgia.
Answers:
If you need to get a third Dr's opinion of your MRI scan, one that is not paid by your employer. If you need to go out of state to get it done again.
