Worker's Compensation Evaluation & Treatment

When a worker sustains work related injury, employer's workers compensation insurance (also known as workman's compensation or simply work comp) pays for lost wages, medical costs, and rehabilitation for the injured employee. 

Most workers compensation claims are orthopedic in nature and require comprehensive, personalized evaluation and treatment plans. Injured worker may undergo evaluation and treatment by the employer's doctor of choice, or by one he or she personally chooses. According to Nebraska law, injured workers have the right to choose their evaluating and treating physician but certain rules do apply.

As an experienced hand, wrist and elbow orthopedic specialist, I understand the special challenges presented by work-related injuries and injured worker's needs. I strongly believe that early diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal injuries are the key to returning an injured worker to his job as soon as possible. 
At the same time, I feel it is my duty to make workers compensation documentation process as efficient and timely for both the worker and the workers compensation case manager. If you are a patient or a case manager searching for the right orthopedic specialist, I assure you that your care and satisfaction are my top priority.

Immediate Report Turnaround
Majority of my reports are dictated within 2-3 hours after providing care. The dictated report is then immediately sent to the carrier and attorneys so there is no reason for a delay in care or benefits. Occasionally, due to heavy surgical or call schedule, it may take me up to 12 hours to produce a report. In any case, do not hesitate to e-mail me directly to follow up with the status of the report.
