Your Rights during a Workers’ Compensation Medical Examination
Under New York’s workers’ compensation laws, when you have suffered a work-related injury and seek workers’ compensation benefits, your employer has the right to require that you be examined by a licensed physician chosen by the company or the workers’ compensation insurance provider. Theoretically, it’s an “independent” examination, designed to objectively determine whether your injury prevents you from working. In reality, though, they’ll look for any way to reject your claim, so that your employer and the workers’ compensation insurer minimize their financial losses.
