Once your claim is open, we recommend you follow your doctor’s orders. Keep your employer and claims examiner informed of your progress and ability to return to work. Be sure to ask your physician questions as it is important to understand your injury and what can be expected.
During your claim, it is normal for your examiner to ask additional questions or for more information. This may include:
You must receive a referral from your treating physician if you wish to change physicians. If you are unable to obtain a referral from your physician, contact your examiner to request a change.
If you have an open, or recently closed, claim with SIF and you receive a medical bill, please contact your provider with your claim number.
If SIF has only paid a portion of the bill you receive, contact your claims examiner.
You are not responsible for any portion of medical bills directly related to the treatment for your injury. You are responsible for medical bills, or portions of bills, not related to your claim.
If you don’t agree with a decision made about your claim, contact your claims examiner first. They will gather more information about your dispute and will discuss with you why the decision was made. If you still do not agree with the decision, you may contact the Idaho Industrial Commission to request a hearing.
