When an injured worker has severe issues, that require multiple surgeries, or life long medical care, Insurace will try to push the injured worker to settle. They will know the cost in long term will be dramatic for them.
If the injured worker knows that the medical care its so important and is specified by the Qme that a lot of care is needed for long term. I talk about severe cases, not a sprain or scratch. then do not settle, exhaust all medical care possible. Usually when long therm medical care is involved, like surgeries, assistive devices ,etc.. the WPI rating will go higher at future revaluations. fight for youself

Hi, I was injured at work back in 2020 and needed surgery/physical therapy/pain meds. I went back to work in 2021 and I cannot contact my new adjuster. They do not answer my calls or emails me back. I don’t have a lawyer. I am disabled. I am unsure of what the next steps are? When Will they close my WC end? Will I get any compensation like stips/awards?

Thanks

I was injured on the job in 2020 and my employer never reported my injury to workers comp. They basically tricked me into not mentioning my injury. Now this year injured my back in the same place and i ended up needing and getting back surgery in February. My question is if the insurance company is offering me 15000 for the injury in 2020 should i take it or should i wait until after my qme

Had a beam fall on my foot (broke 4 toes ) then it bounced into my leg (broke my leg) then I fell 30 ft in to a river. Was not tied off . Foman on site. No one was drug tested . Over all 3 surgeries including losing a 1/4 of my big toe . Should I be expecting a decent check ?

Enjoyed yr video, very helpful. Wanted to ask if a person has not reached MMI yet, at what point will a QME be done? Is a QME something that comes automatically after you reach MMI (back injury/surgery)
