Treatments commonly provided on a lien in Oregon

  • Epidural steroid injections and nerve blocks for neck, back and radiating pain after a crash.
  • Facet injections and radiofrequency ablation when joint pain in the spine persists.
  • Medication management and referrals for imaging or surgery consults when needed.

Arrangements in Oregon differ from California's; many providers use a letter of protection instead of a lien. Ask the provider and attorney before treatment starts.

Choosing a pain doctor in Portland

  • Check the license with the Oregon Medical Board. Physicians can also be looked up on DocInfo.org.
  • Ask whether the doctor is board certified in pain medicine (through anesthesiology, PM&R or neurology).
  • Ask which procedures are done in the office and which at a surgery center, and who reads your imaging.
  • Bring a list of medicines, prior imaging (MRI, X-ray) and the dates your pain started or changed.
