Nevada injured workers can do something about the current law that limits their choice of treating doctors to those on their industrial insurers’ provider lists. The Nevada Chiropractic Association has sponsored a bill, AB 187, that would amend current law and would allow injured workers to treat with a doctor who is willing to accept what other contracted physicians accept for payment for similar treatment. I urge you to come to the Grant Sawyer Building on E. Washington in Las Vegas on March 11, 2015, at 1:30 pm, to testify before the assembly sub-committee considering this legislation to tell them your experiences with having to treat with “their doctors”. Alternatively, you may write a letter, with your name, address, and phone number immediately, and email or fax it to me at (702) 731-9097 and I will enter it as an exhibit on Wednesday.
