Your doctor needs to :
- Clearly evaluate your work restrictions — and communicate them promptly to the employer, worker and claim manager.
- Respond to requests to approve or disapprove a particular job offer, based on the worker’s medical restrictions. Need
help? Call the Provider Hotline at 1‑800‑848‑0811.
- Continue to certify time-loss compensation, at least once every 30 days, as long as the patient is unable to work.
- Make sure only a medical doctor, advanced registered nurse practitioner or physician assistant completes and signs the Report of Accident and Activity Prescription forms.
- Read L&I's Attending Doctor's Return-to-Work Desk Reference (F200-002-000).
