The Prairie Barrister – The Mountain
“No more thieves I believe in the goodness of heart;
It’s return, let it burn, let ’em know who we are;
An ancient tribe of the sky, the redeemer of men;
Sound the song, evil gone, there’s no need to defend.”

In Nebraska when you are hurt on the job, you have a right to choose your own doctor. This is one of the most important rights you can exercise to ensure that you receive the treatment you need.
If your employer tells you right after you are injured that you have a right to choose a doctor to treat your injury, then you must choose a doctor who has treated you or an immediate family member in the past. Once the doctor is chosen under this scenario, that doctor can make referrals for testing and to specialists and those are considered to be within the chain of referral and should be paid if they are related to the injury. However, if you want to change doctors, you either have to get the insurance company to agree or go to the Nebraska Workers’ Compensation Court to approve a change. If you go to a new doctor (outside of the referral given by the original doctor) on your own, the insurance company may not have to pay the bill even if it is related. Leer más
