Hi Sandal,
WCB patients are definitely descriminated against - but they aren't alone. I"ve had doctors refuse to treat me because I'm a car accident victim (mva). They either think I'm faking for insurance or they don't want to offend the insurance company because they're making a mint doing "Independent Medical Assessments" for them outside of Canada's public system. It's sickening and it's made me lose all respect for the medical profession.
As a WCB or MVA patient, if you don't do everything the doctors say, you're "non-compliant." If you seek help, you're "hysterical, scheming, attention-craving or drug seeking." Tell me how we can possibly get quality care in this scenario?
Cheers
