In Tomas Ortega v. Amerit Fleet Solutions Inc and Corvel Corporation the Claimant requests a one-time change in his treating physicians for his back injury. The E/C argues that Claimant is not entitled to a change in physicians per his continued non-compliance with the court’s order on costs and his sworn testimony to pay same. Claimant testified that he had no knowledge of the order requiring him to pay costs. The JCC found Claimant to be a credible witness and that his failure to pay was not willful. The JCC found the Claimant was entitled to a one time change of physician of his choosing. Petition GRANTED.
