Later courts went against this
Declined to follow by Martin v. Davison Transport, Inc., 2001 La. App. LEXIS 2043 (2001)
We have read Baird, supra, closely and find, however, that it simply holds that an injured worker does not have the right to choose his medical/nurse case manager.2 We decline to extend the reasoning employed by the court in Baird, supra, to this case.
The opinion
BBROWN, J.,
Concurring,
The trial judge was not clearly wrong in finding that Baird did not demonstrate a medical necessity for the services sought. Thus, I would affirm the workers’ compensation judge’s ruling.
