[Savul, Sajjad]

It’s an interesting question. I have never been asked to do so.

Subject: [External] [MCOH-EH] Work injury/illness causation


Has anyone in this group encountered the employer telling the occupational health medical provider (physician, NP/PA, or nurse) that they are not to opine on the causation of an injury or illness, either in counseling the injured/ill worker or in medical documentation of the illness/injury?



Anything anyone is able to share would be very helpful.

Thanks!
