there are no "state" doctors in california workers comp.
whether an agreed doc or a qualified doc is used they are all private practice physicians.
your doctor doesn't have to close down your treatment to settle.
if you are beyond the 104 weeks of temporary disability payments and have exhausted your SDI time, it may be difficult to wait out the year until your doctor is ready to declare you MMI and provide a rating.
SSDI is available to those with a year or more of disability.
