David Menchetti was interviewed by WorkersCompensationExperts.org Editor-in-Chief Bill Fay about Illinois workers’ compensation law.
Menchetti highlighted a distinctive feature of Illinois law: injured workers have “the absolute right to choose and direct your medical care,” which he described as unusual compared to other states. He contrasted this with company-selected physicians, noting that worker-chosen doctors foster trust during recovery, whereas company doctors often prioritize returning employees to work quickly.
