Am I required to cooperate with a nurse case manager that has been hired by the Workers’ Compensation insurance company or my employer?
Yes. The Act provides that any injured worker who fails to cooperate with the rehabilitation process can have their benefits terminated by the Workers’ Compensation insurance carrier but the case manager does not have a right to be present when you are being examined by the health provider. You should not give any statements to the case manager; simply decline to answer questions.
