September 28, 2010
What can you do when you receive a medical certification from an employee, but you think it might be fraudulent, or you just don't understand what the doctor has written? In these instances, does the FMLA allow you to contact the employee's health care provider directly to inquire? In this podcast, we explain the circumstances under which an employer may authenticate or clarify medical certification - without violating the rules.
The September 2010 FMLA Insights "Can I Contact an Employee's Doctor Directly?" - Podcast No. 16 is available on the FMLA Insights blog.
