**If you send a DILD to FPDR via email, follow up with a phone call, to ensure that a legible copy of the DILD received was received.

 **Keep a copy for your records. Give the original form to your supervisor to route through proper Bureau channels

Seek medical attention immediately

Take the purple packet containing the Attending Physician's Report and Work Status Report to the doctor to complete and submit to FPDR. You may receive medical treatment from your primary care physician or a health care provider of your choice who is within your private health plan network.

FPDR and Moda Health have a Coordination of Benefits program for members who have personal health care benefits outside of the Kaiser Permanente system.  FPDR will initiate access to the coordination of benefits program when available to reduce the time needed to obtain urgent diagnostics or other emergent care for work related injuries/illnesses.

The urgency of medical treatment is determined by the doctor or provider prescribing the care and is not directed by FPDR or its staff.

If you have questions, you may contact FPDR directly.
