What is the 90-day rule for workers compensation in Stroudsburg, PA?
The 90-day rule in workers' compensation is means an employee must seek medical treatment from a company's chosen doctor for the first 90 days following their accident.
Your employer will post a list of healthcare providers that were approved by the insurance company. When you are injured, you have to choose one from the during the first 90 days. If you don't and you choose a different doctor, even your own, your employer's insurance may not cover the costs.
Once the 90-day period is over and you need to continue treatment, you can choose a different doctor that was either approved by the insurance company or on your own.
