Insurance Company Liable in Tort for Delay of Medical Treatment

A US District Court Judge held that a valid cause of action existed directly against an insurance company for the delay treatment to an injured worker. The court, in denying a motion for summary judgment, held that when an insurer negligently ignored the advice of its own medical expert concerning medical treatment, a claim against the insurer itself was not barred by the Exclusivity Doctrine.
