Legal Question in Workers Comp in Massachusetts
Can my work make me see a doctor that they pick? I was injured at work and I want to wait to see my Primary Care, but a workers comp rep told me to go see this doctor that they picked and not too wait.

You should talk to a Worker's Compensation Attorney about this issue. Don't monkey around with insurance companies without a lawyer. While I don't practice in this area myself, I am happy to provide a few names if you want to email me: [email protected]
Yes they can. If you don't, they can terminate your benefits or not pay you. Insurance companies love it when employees don't have an attorney, so they can get away with things. I have been helping workers' compensation clients for more tahn 10 years. Please contact me if you would like some help with this case.
