What if work comp has a nurse coming to my appointments?
Contrary to what you may have been told, the nurse case manager does not have to be with you in your appointment with your doctor. If he or she insists on being in the appointment with you after you have asked for privacy, you should talk to the doctor’s office about this.
Nurse case managers have an interesting role in Worker’s Compensation cases. Although they can be helpful, do not be lulled into a false sense of security in your dealings with them. They are representatives of the insurance company.
To learn more about the role of nurse case managers in your Workers’ Compensation case and find out whether they are overstepping, please call and talk to one of our attorneys.
