Rule 40 - APPLICATION FOR CHANGE OF PHYSICIANA. A claimant seeking a change of physician pursuant to 85 O.S., Section 326(E) shall file a Form-A application with the Court. Within ten (10) days after the application is filed, the respondent shall choose one of the three physicians listed by the claimant, file a Form 10A, or object to the application by filing a Form 13.B. If the Court determines a change of physician is proper, and the parties are unable to agree upon a physician from among the physicians named by the parties, or if the respondent fails to timely file a Form 10A or to object to the application, the Court may select a physician who is qualified, and available within a reasonable time, to treat the body part affected, giving preference to a physician who is on the Court's list of independent medical examiners.Okla.
