For the past six months , I have been off work due to being hurt on the job, following my injury, I was given a form allowing med records for this injury only to be released to my work comp caseworker , today however i was given a threatening phone call from my employer's lawyer stating unless i grant them access to my med records prior to my injury, they can halt my payments , is this legal ?
Answer
Perhaps...look at OCGA 34-9-207 and Board Rule 207 for information about who can request your medical records in a workers' comp claim in GA. Glad to help further if you'd like to talk.
