- Post the Panel of Physicians in prominent places upon the business premises.
- Educate all employees so they are aware of the function of the Posted Panel of Physicians and how to select a physician
- Give all employees appropriate assistance in contacting panel doctors to schedule appointments after an on-the-job injury.
United Business Insurance Company has provided a Posted Panel of Physicians for each of your locations. A valid panel will ensure that all employees injured on-the-job are being treated by competent physicians and your organization complies with the Georgia Workers’ Compensation Act.
- The panel attached MUST be properly completed and posted in prominent locations upon the business premises such as bulletin boards, employee’s break station, time card clock, personnel office, etc.
- The panel should also be posted at remote job sites where employees are regularly required to work away from their principle place of business.
- All employees injured on-the-job MUST select a doctor from the panel. The employee has the right to make ONE change of doctor from the posted panel and this change may be made without prior authorization.
