Physician Panels

Virginia law requires that an employer offer a panel of at least three physicians to the injured employee for the purpose of providing medical treatment to work related injuries or diseases. If you do not have a panel, refer to the PPO Network provided by MCI. The program also has a second tier Occupational Specialty Network. See below for a copy of the most recent update of this specialty PPO.

If you need assistance in setting up a panel, please contact Client Services in one of two ways:

1. Call 800-734-4460 ext. 21131 or

2. Email ClientServices@careworks.com

Client Services is staffed Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. CST.
