Members can now access their Workers’ Compensation panel of physicians via the Member Portal.
Not only can members now access and download their panels more quickly when needed, they can also provide the most up-to-date panel to injured employees so they may seek treatment.
The feature was added in response to member requests to access their most current panel in real-time.
Member panels are located at the bottom of the screen on the member portal.
The Virginia Workers’ Compensation Act requires the employer to provide claimants with a panel of physicians from which to choose. The panel is designed to refer employees to a physician best qualified to respond to the employee’s needs, as well as whose best interest is in providing quality care to the patients and working toward returning to work.
