You are right, they are trying to get rid of all limited and light duty employees. Yes it is discrimination but it is a long uphill fight.

I don't know if Ellis Clinic has a list of other comp doctors. They may have some due to the fact that they have trained other doctors to handle comp injuries.

To get new medical restrictions on your old claim you will likely have to file a recurrence claim. It is always recommended that you see a doctor for a chronic comp injury at least once a year to keep file updated and active.

If your new duties aggravate your condition then you have a new injury or occupational disease(most likely occupational disease.) I would not file a recurrence claim because you will likely get denied(because of current work aggravation.) It will be more advantageous for you to file a new claim anyway.

What can it hurt to call Ellis?
