I have filed written responses to inaccurate doc reports with both the doctor's office and my attorney. In one instance, I filed a complaint with the Board of Health in my state because a report was so inaccurate and the PM doc actually had the nerve to say that my pain was all in my head - even though he wrote me a script for methadone!! That was during a terrible time for me, when my RSD had just started to spread into the occipital area of my head and I was a total mess!! I was really concerned that the report was going to invalidate my WC claim when I was getting sicker every day.
During the last year the quarterly newsletter of the RSDSA had an awesome column on WC issues and I believe that this issue in particular may have been discussed. You may want to check out thier website to see if back articles are archived. I am almost certain that the author discusses how she had one doctor's license revoked in her state for shoddy reporting.
Good luck to you. XOXOX Sandy

I am so disappointed with Drs. Do really listen? What do i do? momof4
