California Medical Provider Network (MPN) and Employee Information

Paychex and Gallagher Bassett have partnered to offer policyholders the efficiencies of Medical Provider

Networks (MPN) for the benefit of the injured workers and their employers.

Employers in conjunction with the insurance industry developed the MPN program, which subsequently

received legislative approval aimed at providing injured workers with the best medical treatment and an

early and safe return to productive lives. The MPN program is offered at no additional cost to the

employers, but to be successful, it does require employer cooperation by informing employees of their

rights and responsibilities under the MPN program.

The Full Written MPN Notification must be given to the injured worker. The employee should sign the

acknowledgment letter; however, the MPN regulations are silent about Employee Acknowledgement

Letters.

When the injury is reported or at the time of injury, the injured worker must receive the Full Written

MPN Notification. Ctrl + Click on the following links to access the English and Spanish versions.

• Full Written MPN Notification – English

Employees reporting a claim are to be provided the Employee MPN Information Notification Packet,
