One-Time Change Checklist

  • Confirm the written request and date received.
  • Calculate five calendar days from receipt.
  • Select a specific physician—not merely a clinic or facility.
  • Confirm the physician is not professionally affiliated with the prior physician.
  • Send written authorization identifying the alternate physician by name.
  • Move the appointment forward without unreasonable delay.
  • Missed the 5 day deadline? Contact one of our attorneys to discuss options for handling.

Practice note: Timely authorization does not necessarily end the carrier’s obligation to timely provide the change. See City of Bartow v. Flores. Read § 440.13 →
