Injured workers have control over medical information and medical treatment appointments

Imagine if you attended a doctor’s appointment and when you arrived for your scheduled consultation you were met at the door of the clinic by a complete stranger or even someone from your work, like your boss.

They then tell you they will be attending the appointment with you, and they listen to your medical issues, interject while you and your doctor are working out your treatment plan and may even argue about what you and your doctor decide is an appropriate set of hours and duties that you can perform.
