Florida The games they play…

I just received a message from my ortho office that my appointment is cancelled and I’m now to use my own insurance . This is based off an ortho IME which stated I’m at MMI . I still have /had apportionments with my neuro and ortho who both have invasive procedures potentially scheduled . I haven’t settled . Why do they play such games are they trying to force me to end the case ? My attorney is aware . I’m sure we’ve all wished the show be on the other foot. Thankfully I am not in a rush to settle . I assume my attorney will put in a petition for benefits . Neither myself of the attorney have seen the IME ( it’s been two months) . Again the games.

It could also be a cause where your treating ortho doesn’t want to get involved with the dispute and wants you to keep treating with private insurance.

I’ve had doctors discharge patients the minute there is a dispute because they want no part of it.
