As a practical matter, yes.   The employer or their insurance company is only obligated to pay bills for medical treatment that is from an authorized physician. Tennessee Workers Compensation law required your employer (or their insurance company) to give you a list of 3 doctors to choose from when you have a work-related injury.
  
  Choosing the right doctor (or at least the best of the 3 choices available) is a decision where it makes sense to consult an attorney experienced in Tennessee Workers Compensation.
