Attention Employers and Health Care Providers: New Medical Treatment Guidelines

In keeping with the goals of the Board to create medical guidelines for the treatment of injured workers using the most effective evidence-based modern diagnostic and treatment techniques, the Board plans to propose two additional Medical Treatment Guidelines (MTGs): Posttraumatic Stress Disorder and Acute Stress Disorder, and Major Depressive Disorder.

Regulations about these new processes will be published soon in the State Register and on the Board’s website. A Subject Number will be issued when they are published.
