Choose an Ethical DOL Doctor
There are many doctors across the United States that are being severely penalized with heavy fines and jail time for trying to defraud the United States Government with improper billing and other unethical practices. Make sure to choose a DOL doctor that is honest, ethical, and compliant with the long list of standards the Department of Labor provides.
You Have the Right to Choose Your Own Doctor
Choosing Your DOL Doctor Did you know that the Federal Employees Compensation Act affords all injured federal workers the right to choose their own doctor? That's right, you don't have to go to the doctor that your supervisor or employing agency tells you to. You can choose a doctor that puts your needs first and will not bow to the pressures of your employing agency. If you have been injured while working for the federal government make sure that you choose a DOL doctor that is experienced as a Federal Workers Compensation. Choose a clinic that is certified by the US Dept. of Labor and that offers free claims assistance so that you can get the full care, treatment, and benefit that you deserve. How to Find the Best DOL Doctors Though there may be several excellent doctors in your area, few of them have the knowledge and experience needed to treat injured federal employees correctly.
