Workers’ Compensation Program in Central Georgia
OrthoGeorgia physicians at all our locations are available to meet with employers and tour the work place to better understand the type of jobs performed and to better direct the overall treatment plan.
Access
We understand the importance of seeing injured employees in a timely fashion. OrthoGeorgia’s commitment to employers is to see their injured employees within 24 to 48 hours of the injury. Our physicians deliver efficient and effective medical care for all musculoskeletal, bone, or joint injuries.
Workers’ Compensation Communication
OrthoGeorgia physicians complete a full report with treatment plan and work status included and will provide this information each time the employee is seen. If the employee is unable to return to regular duty status, our physicians report will outline detailed return to work restrictions for modified duty.
