Physician Pre-Designation

Employees have the option of pre-designating their personal physician as their treating physician in the event of a work-related injury/illness. This designation must occur prior to a work-related injury/illness and your physician must agree to be pre-designated. Employees bear the responsibility of keeping their physician pre-designation current with the Workers' Compensation Coordinator.

Note: A personal physician includes a medical group, if the medical group is composed of licensed doctors of medicine or osteopathy operating as a multi-specialty medical group providing comprehensive medical services predominantly for non-occupational illnesses and injuries (e.g. Kaiser Permanente). A specialist or specialty group, such as an orthopedist, cannot be pre-designated.
