California law allows employees to predesignate a personal medical doctor (M.D.) or doctor of osteopathic medicine (D.O.) to treat them in the event of a work-related injury or illness if:

1)your employer offers group health coverage;

2)the doctor is your regular physician, who shall be either a physician who has limited his or her practice of medicine to general practice or who is a board-certified or board-eligible internist, pediatrician, obstetrician-gynecologist, or family practitioner, and has previously directed your medical treatment, and retains your medical records;

3)prior to the injury your doctor agrees to treat you for work injuries or illnesses; and

4)prior to the injury, you provided your employer the following in writing: (a) notice that you want your personal doctor to treat you for a work-related injury or illness, and (b) your personal doctor’s name and business address.
To predesignate a personal physician, you must submit a completed pre-designation form to the Workers Compensation Coordinator prior to the date of injury or illness.

If you need a copy of the form, email me at [email protected] for a copy.
