If your injury is covered by worker's compensation insurance, the doctor must give you a copy of your impairment rating. Please call if questions...Bill Poland

Yes. Just because you are not paying the bill does not mean you cannot receive a copy of your medical records. If you want to discuss this further, please call 901-759-0075
