What medical records does my W/C adjuster want access to?

Michael is absolutely right. When an injured worker signs a blank WC-207, the insurance company will basically have carte blanche to get all of their medical records. The insurer is entitled to get a signed WC-207 for specific health care providers with records relevant to your claim.

She wants all of your medical records without limitation, but she can't have them. Under Georgia law, you do not have to sign a blank medical release. You should never sign a blank medical authorization in a Georgia workers' compensation case. If you are claiming entitlement to workers' compensation benefits in Georgia, you have to execute a separate WC-207 Patient Authorization for each medical provider that has treated you for your injury. You also have to execute a separate WC-207 Patient Authorization for each medical provider who has provided treatment in the past for the same condition for which you now claim workers' compensation benefits or any "reasonably related" condition. For example, if your workers' compensation injury relates to your back and you have had previous treatment to the spine at any level in the past, you should execute a WC-207 for the medical provider that provided that past treatment. Always sign and date a WC-207 in blue ink so you can tell it is an original. Good luck with your case.

You only need to sign one for the doctors you treated for your claim; however if you get into litigation the defense may send out request for production of documents to any doctor
