FAQ
  Workers' Compensation
Can a worker refuse medical treatment?
 
Answer:

In certain circumstances if a worker refuses medical treatment or fails to follow medical advice, he or she may lose the right to continuing benefits. The courts, however, are reluctant to apply this principle and it must be a very serious case before it is applied.
