No there is not. The only limit on medical care is 12 chriopractic visits. Insurance companies may routinely attempt to limit or only pre-authorize a specific amount of visits but so long as the authorized doctor recommends it, the injured worker can successfully fight those limitations by filing a Petition for Benefits with the WC system known as DOAH.
