Once I have selected my choice of physician, are there any ways to ever change doctors?

Video Transcription

Under the Longshore and Defense Base Acts, once you've selected your choice of physician, especially if you've signed a Choice of Physician form, it is typically very difficult to ever change physicians. However, for good cause shown, you can appeal to the district director and request a change of physician. For example, if you move or if a doctor voluntarily terminates care, you may be able to show good cause and have the district director order the insurance company to provide you with a change of physician.
