If, following this ninety day period, you require additional medical care; you may treat with the health care provider of your choice.  However, you must advise your employer of this change within five (5) days of your first visit.  All health care providers must provide your employer with  an initial medical report ten (10) days following your first visit and on a monthly basis so long as treatment continues.

In the event emergency treatment is required, you may treat with the health care provider of your choice.  However, subsequent treatment must be obtained from one of the employer's designated health care providers for the first ninety (90) days from the date of first treatment by that designated provider.

If one of the above listed health care providers refers you to another licensed health care provider, reasonable bills for these services will be paid.

Should an employer-designated provider prescribe invasive surgery, the employee shall be permitted to obtain a second opinion from a provider of the employee's own choice, at the expense of the insurer.  If the second opinion differs from the opinion of the employer-designated provider, the employee may choose which course of treatment to follow, provided the second opinion provides a specific and detailed course of treatment.  However, if the employee chooses to follow the procedures recommended by the second opinion, such procedures shall be performed by one of the employer's designated providers for a period of ninety (90) days from the date of the visit to the provider of the employee's choice.

ALL INJURIES, NO MATTER HOW MINOR, SHOULD BE REPORTED IMMEDIATELY TO YOUR SUPERVISOR
