The failure to authorize the filling of a reasonable prescription could entitle the injured worker to obtain a penalty against the insurance carrier, but I would have to know the exact facts before I could be more definite. In general, the insurance carrier is not involved in having the medication prepared, only in whether it is paid for.

Only if the judge finds that the U.R.'s denial was unreasonable. If you would like a free consultation, please feel free to contact my office at 1.877.505.INJURY.
