Finally new MRI authorized

[Maria]

I've been able to get a CD if the facility offers them in the past but generally with WC the records aren't yours actually they are the property of the State Board of Worker's Compensation. I always ask my PTP for a copy of the report and then generally go to the imaging facility and tell them I'm going to see a specialist (as in 2nd surgical opinion) and was advised to pick up my films or CD so that I can hand carry it to the appt. That worked in the past.

I'll ask my PM for the copy of the report and see about getting a CD or copy of the films again. Also it used to be first CD was free and anything after that was $15 a copy but that was back in 2005 and from imaging centers that offered the CD (back then not all imaging centers did and there were different policies re getting copies of films).
