Who says business and labor can’t get the job done? Today HB14-1383 passed its third reading in the Colorado House of Representatives with a party line vote of 37 to 27.
This bill represents a historic collaboration between labor and business stakeholders. The result is a bill that stands for a 100% increase in the number of employer-selected doctors a worker can choose from following an on-the-job injury.
"This bill represents many months of negotiation and collaboration with our stakeholders in labor and the business community," said Mike Cerbo Executive Director of Colorado AFL-CIO.
"We are proud of the agreement reached and that we were able to work together to increase doctor choice for injured workers."
The bill modifies current law in C.R.S. 8-43-404 to increase the available pool of doctors assigned by employers/insurers when a worker sustains a workplace injury from two to four. It does not impose any new standards on rural employers.
