Johnson v. Orange County Corrections

26 FLW D1521

Managed care is not applicable when the issue is whether the claimant has reached maximum medical improvement or whether she has a permanent impairment rating. Since this dispute did not relate to medical care being provided, the managed care statutory provisions including grievance procedures, are not considered as they relate to the claimant's entitlement to an independent medical examination. Instead, claimant's entitlement to an independent medical examination was controlled by Section 440.1925, Florida Statutes.
