You do not lose any pay for going for treatments or examinations during your normal work hours. If you go after your normal shift, then you have already been paid for that day and there is no additional payment made [you do not get more than you would normally earn in a day]. what yo say your manager said appers confused; ask him to clarify and if he says something different than what I have said have him call their WC carrier to verify whta is correct.
