I believe doctor input is essential in these discussions. Why not ask the doc in the trenches.A PR-2 with a RFA section is a great idea. The DFR should be used when an injury first occurred, not every time a new doctor takes over. Instead, we should be paid for a narrative report. A consult to a referring doctor should be paid to do a report. $12 for a PR-2 is way too low. If you want treating doctors to return to treating injured workers, you need to pay them a liveable amount to offset the hassles of denials, upset patients, etc. It needs to come from the top. I think we can provide quality care. The system has been sanitized. The bad actors have been removed. Those of us who are left want to give quality care to our patients. Please let us
