Can a lawyer stop texas work comp adjuster and nurse case manager from discontinuing medical services and payment

Generally you do not have to allow someone from the insurance company, such as a nurse case manager, to attend your doctor's appointment because it violates Federal Law. You can refuse. As far as pressure to stop services, your doctor and physical therapist should be able to make an independent determination of your ability to return to work. However, if they make a decision that you disagree with, you can get a second opinion. If your benefits are terminated, you can appeal. Either way, it wouldn't hurt to have a lawyer looking out for you. Please note that I am an Illinois workers’ compensation attorney so there may be some exceptions in Texas I’m not aware of.
