I had a very good adjuster at the start, and then got someone hardcore and out right ignoring me quite often after a few months. This adjuster says no or ignores everything I ask for. From my experience, I would ask for everything early with your first adjuster. The second adjuster most likely will not help you at all.
@@myworkerscompguide Thank you for the information. I am beginning to think I am stuck with my adjuster and got lucky with the first one. As the first adjuster told me that my original assigned adjuster was on vacation. Been over a year now, I don't think I am getting another adjuster.
Interesting question. I'm not aware of any statute that either allows or prohibits the QME stating the applicant's race. So listing it in the report is not likely an issue. However, apportionment to race, credibility issues related to race, or really most any other conclusions of the QME that are based on race would likely be problematic.
@@myworkerscompguide thank you for responding. After checking with 10 other claimants scattered throughout California and from different ethnicities, none listed their race. So I researched it further and found case law were they was a restriction put in place for the QME not to provide it. So I was confused about why my race was included.
Thank you
Happy to help inform.

It can be very hit and miss with adjusters. Ideally your adjuster will change again soon, so you have better luck.

@@kindredmalise6633 Best of luck to you.
Are the QME supposed to put your race inside of THE report?

@@myworkerscompguide and thanks again for responding.
@@tanyapeters5062 Interesting. Do you mind sharing the case law on point?
@@myworkerscompguide I’m not at home. Printed it out. Will google and put in chat if can find.
