Tennessee LB-1097: Medical Record Certification

Parties in Tennessee workers' compensation cases file medical records with the Court of Workers' Compensation Claims, and this one-page certification lets those records come in without live testimony from the records keeper. The medical provider or the custodian of the records certifies, under Rule 0800-02-21.16(2)(b), that the attached records of a named provider are true and accurate. A Spanish version is posted with the English form.

Who completes it

The medical provider or the provider's records custodian checks the matching box, names the provider whose records are attached, and signs, prints a name and dates it. The case caption at the top identifies the docket, state file number and parties.

Submitting and payment

How to submit it
The certification is attached to the medical records that a party files with the Court of Workers' Compensation Claims.
Who pays
The certification sets no fee and does not address charges for copying the records.

Good to know

  • The caption asks for the docket number, state file number and year, request for assistance number, date of injury, and the employee and employer or carrier names.
  • The certification covers only the accuracy of the attached records; it contains no fields for a medical opinion, diagnosis or impairment rating.
  • The top of the form leaves space for the court clerk's filed date stamp.
  • Both English and Spanish versions are listed on the Bureau's forms page under Court of Workers' Compensation Claims forms.

Frequently asked questions

Who can sign the Tennessee Medical Record Certification?

Either the medical provider or the custodian of the provider's records. The form has a checkbox for each, followed by the name of the medical provider whose attached records are certified as true and accurate, and lines for the signature, printed name and date.

Is the Tennessee medical record certification available in Spanish?

Yes. The Bureau's forms page lists a Spanish version, Certificación de Historial Médico, alongside the English LB-1097. Both serve the same purpose under Rule 0800-02-21.16(2)(b): certifying that attached medical records are true and accurate for filing with the Court.
