Wyoming statute on WC mental injury claims
Wyo. Stat. § 27-14-102(a)(xi)(J) — Wyoming’s workers’ compensation definition of compensable injury requires that mental injury claims be diagnosed by a licensed psychiatrist or clinical psychologist. This narrows the field of qualified examiners considerably and is a frequent procedural issue in Wyoming WC mental injury contests.
Tri-State Medical Legal consultancy
Dr. Cichon serves as a consulting psychiatrist for Tri-State Medical Legal on Wyoming workers’ compensation matters. Tri-State referrals are typically Wyoming WC mental injury claims, PTSD claims arising from industrial events, and TBI / post-concussive cases requiring psychiatric subspecialty review.
Telemedicine workflow
Wyoming examinations are routinely conducted via telemedicine, which works well for the clinical psychiatric interview and history-taking components of an IME. EEG Brainview is performed in-person in Las Vegas; for cases requiring EEG, the examinee can travel to the practice or Dr. Cichon can travel to Wyoming where the case warrants it.
Speaking engagements and Wyoming familiarity
Dr. Cichon has presented at Wyoming workers’ compensation industry conferences on PTSD diagnosis and treatment in industrial injury claims, and has appeared multiple times before the Wyoming Workers’ Compensation Division in contested case proceedings since 2023.
