Re: back pain
Once you provide the insurance company your off work slips, they should begin paying you 2/3 of your average weekly wage. There is a 3 day waiting period, but if you have been off work for more than 2 weeks, you should be getting paid.
I'd highly recommend you contact an attorney, as they can file appropriate motions to ensure payment is sent by the insurance company timely. I'm happy to help you in this regard. Please feel free to contact me at the information provided on this website.
Take care and good luck!
