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.
