I am not sure what you mean by a diagnostic claim. Claims can only be filed for injuries. If you mean claims filed to determine if you have a medical problem, then the employer does not have to pay for such an evaluation.

If you mean for diagnostic testing like x-rays, MRI, Blood tests and etc. then employer or the insurance company has to pay if it is necessary and requested by the treating physician as a part of course of treatment. Feel free to call us at 213.388.7070 for a free consultation.
