A: You can always revoke the Medical Authorization at any time.I never allow my clients to sign Medical Authorizations, and one of the first things I do when retained by a new client is contact the Workers Compensation carrier and immediately revoke the authorization.

If you are not currently represented by an Attorney, it is my recommendation that you immediately contact and Attorney who is a Certified Specialist in Penciling Workers Compensation Law. The Initial Consultation will be free of charge and most Attorneys will accept your Claim on a Contingent Fee Basis.

A: You certainly can, and as already stated you are not obligated to sign the authorization at all.
