We seek information for the class action lawsuit as it is all about doctors that work for WCB and give their biased, fraudulent opinion so the case manager is able to deny legitimate claims. The case managers that hire these same doctors over and over again. Not all of the WCB doctors are specialists in the field of your injury, but give an opinion that goes against medical evidence and your own treating physicans and specialists. This is a pattern that can be proven in Canada. Criminal law such as Racketeering, Influencing not being used against WCB and the IME doctors. The pattern clearly shows the opinion has been paid for and goes in WCB’s favor most of the time. The case managers whom do not always use their real last name may have failed to be neutral while adjudicating your claim. We believe law suits would be beneficial for the Injured Worker to file as well. Please respond with the WCB doctors names that have provided the medical opinion that differs from your doctors, specialists and most important medical evidence. We must show the pattern with the same WCB doctors and the same opinion. Please state your case managers name on our guestbook. We can help each other and hold these doctors and case managers accountable for their criminal behavior. It is not too late to join, email [email protected] or make it private in the guest book. Welcome and thank you.
This is a response from Gerry who was not sure the RICO law would apply. For Canadians the same criminal law exists though not called RICO but it still deals with these issues.
On review, your letter covers the concerns of workers. A recent case involving RICO may be of interest to you. I must admit that when your lawyer suggested that a class action lawsuit could be filed on similar legislation in Canada, I was somewhat skeptical. Most people recognize the fact that employers pay premiums for protection against civil suits and as well the Alberta Government protects employers from criminal prosecution by prosecuting employers under provincial legislation, rather than criminal law. WCB acting as a criminal organization protects the accident fund on behalf of employers by illegally denying claims and benefits, thus keeping premiums low and as well paying dividends to employers based on their criminal actions of having their own medical consultants providing false medical evidence. I now agree with your lawyer that a class action lawsuit could be filed against WCB based on the findings of Justice Friedman (Culture of denial) and as well supporting evidence from numerous case files. In the RICO case at hand, it seems that the employer was self insured and conspired to deny benefits which is identical to WCB who provides insurance on behalf of employers, thus WCB can be sued under the same legislation as in RICO

I would also assume that the Alberta Government who is in charge of WCB could also be sued as they are the ones who are supposed to ensure that workers are treated with fairness, dignity and respect.
