Your medical records are very important to your Workers Comp case. The Arbitrator who decides your case will look carefully at the records to decide if you win, and whether your treatment is related to the work injury.
If you delay your treatment, it will hurt your case.
You must tell your doctor how your injury happened at work, or you will most likely lose your case.
Treat on a regular basis with your doctor. If you do not the insurance company will use it against you.
Tell your doctor how you feel each visit so there is a clear history of your problems.
What the doctor writes is very persuasive. So make sure you are very clear with the doctor.
