Labor code 4062 (b) addresses objection to medical procedures when employer objects to treating physician's recommendations

• A. Payment of medical procedures
• B. Objection to medical procedures when employer objects to treating physician's recommendations
• C. Scheduling of medical procedures
• D. Reimbursement of medical costs

Answer: (B)

Labor Code 4062(b) focuses on disputes about medical treatment when the employer objects to the treatment that a treating physician has recommended. It specifically addresses the situation where the employer disagrees with the medical procedures proposed by the physician treating the worker. This is about resolving a treatment objection, not about who pays for the procedure, when it is scheduled, or how costs are reimbursed. So the description that matches this scenario—an objection to a medical procedure because the employer objects to the treating physician’s recommendation—best reflects what the section covers.
