Injured Employee no assistance from RMA
We are insured by RMA, an employee got injured at work back in 2017. We submitted the claim to RMA and medical reports. RMA then sent the employee to physio and they received another report from the physio. They have now said they are looking for a specialist Doctor to asses the employees arm. We send emails to *** and *** (Njabulo) but we have had no response from March 2019. When we call the call centre they tell us the same story everytime. They are looking for a Doctor and that they cannot get hold of the person that is assigned to the claim.

18 Feb 2021, 15:42After posting this review I received a mail requesting my claim number and I have sent them this information. Today I called RMA to do a follow up, they have now advised me that according to the procedure RMA does not source doctors for patients but the employer should look for the doctor. This client has seen two doctors so far that were supp**** by RMA so this is very confusing.
RMA now expects the employer to look for a Neurophysiologist and also provide transportation to the doctor. Once the employee arrives at the Neurophsiologist who will pay this bill as the employee will not be assisted until payment is made.
Since 2019 we have been given the run around about this Neurophysiologist and RMA cannot find one and the employee has been waiting since and every time we are being told a different story and given a different direction and seems that RMA is trying by all means to delay this process as much as possible as this is now the 4th year the claim is open with no clear direction.
