Can I choose my physician under Charleston workers' compensation?

Usually, no. Your employer or their workers’ compensation insurance provider will pick the doctors, dentists, and other medical workers to be covered by the insurance plan. If you choose to see a physician outside of the plan, those fees may not be covered by your compensation.

Unfortunately, this can sometimes make it difficult to receive the healthcare you need following a workplace injury. If you need assistance in your fight for adequate health coverage, contact the Steinberg Law Firm at 843-720-2800 to speak with a Charleston workers' compensation lawyer.
