You may be required to travel to a doctor selected and paid by the insurance company. The examinations may be brief, yet the doctor&#8217;s opinion can affect your benefits, medical treatment, and ability to remain off of work.<\/p>\n<p>In an open claim, these examinations may occur repeatedly. We see this especially after a surgery, a change in restrictions, or a significant development in your medical condition.<\/p>\n<p>A full Michigan workers&#8217; compensation settlement generally ends the insurance company&#8217;s right to keep sending you for additional examinations.<\/p>\n<p>No more preparing for another appointment.
